(7) The average time period between the actual date of the mistrial or jury discharge and the opening to the jury in the next trial is approximately 3 months. As a general rule there are four (4) trial periods each year (a 3–4 week trial period every 3 months), and where there is a mistrial in one trial period, it is almost always given priority and listed in the next trial period. The precise number of days will depend on the week in which the mistrial occurred and the actual week in the following trial period the matter was listed for re-trial.
