*487PAGE, Justice
(concurring).
While I concur in the result reached by the court, I write separately to note that Minn. R.Crim. P. 9.01, subd. 3(2), is unambiguous and provides that “non-disclosure under this rule shall not extend beyond the time the witnesses or persons are sworn to testify at the trial.” Given this unambiguous language, it seems to me that before his second trial, Jackson was entitled to discovery of all otherwise discoverable material and information that was withheld pursuant to the June 27, 2007, court order for witnesses who were sworn to testify at his first trial.
