Whenever a criminal action is commenced by an indictment, information, any petition for a writ, or any original petition, motion or request involving criminal proceedings, the clerk shall assign it in the same manner as outlined in RWCC 301, except as follows:
(a) In actions with multiple defendants, the clerk shall enter the case for the first defendant into the register which will automatically assign a case number and assign the case to one of the two divisions of the court. The first defendant's case number will receive the base case number, and all other co-defendants will be automatically assigned to the same division using the base number with a case number suffix.
(b) Any case dismissed without prejudice and refiled within one (1) year of the dismissal shall be assigned to the division from which the case was dismissed.
(c) Motions for post-conviction relief will be assigned to the same division in which the original action was assigned.
(d) Motions for review of bail brought in circuit court pursuant to RCr 4.54(1) will be heard by the judge of the division in which the grand jury is empaneled at the time the motion is filed. (See RWCC 600.)
