In the event that the defendant intends to produce evidence that they were not at the place specified in the complaint at the time of the alleged crime, they must serve upon the prosecutor, within a reasonable time after the entry of a plea of not guilty, a statement in writing, specifying the place where they claim to have been and the names and addresses of the witnesses they will call to support this defense of alibi.

Upon receiving this statement, the prosecutor shall advise the defendant of the names and addresses of any additional witnesses who may be called to refute such alibi, or within a reasonable time after their identity becomes known to the prosecutor.

Neither the prosecutor nor the defendant will be permitted at the trial to introduce evidence inconsistent with this specification unless the Court, for good cause, permits this specification. The Court may exclude evidence on the defendant’s behalf, that he or she was in a place other than that specified by the prosecutor, unless the Court is satisfied that such evidence should be admitted. The sanction for noncompliance with this rule is the exclusion of any alibi evidence at trial. Such exclusion is, however, in the discretion of the judge.
