A court must first try the sufficiency of a challenge, assuming the facts alleged therein to be true. If the court determines that the facts alleged, if true, constitute sufficient grounds for challenge to the panel, the objecting party may then deny the facts alleged in the challenge. The denial may be oral and must be entered on the record. The court must then proceed to try the issue of fact.
