546.12 VIEW OF PREMISES; PROCEDURE.
In a civil case when the court deems it proper that the jury should view real property which
is the subject of litigation, or the place where a material fact occurred, it may order them to be
taken, in a body and in the custody of proper officers, to the place, which shall be shown to
them by the judge, or by a person appointed by the court for that purpose; and while the jurors
are thus absent, no one other than the judge or person so appointed shall speak to them on any
subject connected with the trial.
