(Added Feb. 28, 1966, eff. July 1, 1966; amended Mar. 9, 1987, eff. Aug. 1, 1987; Apr. 29, 2002, eff. Dec. 1, 2002.) NOTES OF ADVISORY COMMITTEE ON RULES—1966 This new rule establishes a basis for pretrial con- xxxxxxxx with counsel for the parties in criminal cases within the discretion of the court. Pretrial conferences are now being utilized to some extent even in the ab- sence of a rule.

As the third sen- tence suggests, in some cases it may be desirable or necessary to have the defendant present. See Commit- tee on Pretrial Procedure of the Judicial Conference of the United States, Recommended Procedures in Xxxxx- nal Pretrials, 37 F.R.D. 95 (1965). NOTES OF ADVISORY COMMITTEE ON RULES—1987 AMENDMENT The amendments are technical. No substantive change is intended. COMMITTEE NOTES—2002 AMENDMENT The language of Rule 17.1 has been amended as part of the general restyling of the Criminal Rules to make them more easily understood and to make style and terminology consistent throughout the rules.
