Civil Model Jury Charge 1.24 FINAL INSTRUCTIONS REGARDING JU in NJ

Civil Model Jury Charge 1.24 FINAL INSTRUCTIONS REGARDING JU in NJ

Civil Model Jury Charge 1.24 FINAL INSTRUCTIONS REGARDING JURORS QUESTIONS
In this trial, I allowed you to submit certain questions that you wanted the witnesses to answer. Some were in fact asked and answered, and others were not asked. Keep in mind that the rules of evidence or other rules of court may have prevented me from allowing some questions. I have applied the same rules to your questions that I applied to the questions asked by the lawyers. Some questions may have been modified or rephrased. Some may have been asked just as you have written them, and others may not have been asked at all. If a question that you submitted was not asked, you should not take it personally, nor should you attach any significance to my decision not to allow the question. I caution you not to treat jurors questions, or the answers to those questions, differently than you would treat any other testimony. You are to carefully consider all of the testimony and other evidence in this case before deciding how much weight to give particular testimony.
