RULE CrR 6.8
                      NOTE TAKING BY JURORS


          In all cases, jurors shall be allowed to take written
     notes regarding the evidence presented to them and keep
     these notes with them during their deliberation.  The court
     may allow jurors to keep these notes with them in the jury
     room during recesses, in which case jurors may review their
     own notes but may not share or discuss the notes with other
     jurors until they begin deliberating.  Such notes should be
     treated as confidential between the jurors making them and
     their fellow jurors, and shall be destroyed immediately
     after the verdict is rendered.
