Decision Content

13-117. Jury duty to consult. (Optional as preliminary instruction.)

 

In deliberating on this case, it is your duty to consult with one another and to decide the case only after an impartial consideration of the evidence. In the course of your deliberations, do not hesitate to re-examine your own views and change your opinion, if convinced it is wrong, but do not give up your honest conviction as to the weight or effect of evidence solely because of the opinion of your fellow jurors, or for the mere purpose of returning a verdict. Remember that you are not partisans but judges - judges of the facts. Your sole interest is to determine the truth from the evidence in the case.
