Jury instructions, also known as charges or directions, are a set of legal guidelines given by a judge to a jury in a court of law. They are an important procedural step in a trial by jury, and as such are a cornerstone of criminal process in many common law countries.
Either before or after the closing arguments by the lawyers, the judge will explain the law that applies to the case to you. This is the judges instruction to the jury. You have to apply that law to the facts, as you have heard them, in arriving at your verdict.
Jury instructions are given to the jury by the judge, who usually reads them aloud to the jury. The judge issues a judges charge to inform the jury how to act in deciding a case. The jury instructions provide something of a flowchart on what verdict jurors should deliver based on what they determine to be true.

Find jury instructions in trial court documents If you cant locate the jurisdiction you need in secondary sources, you can always search through the jury instructions actually filed with the courts.
In proposing jury instructions, the parties have an opportunity to persuade the trial court to present their view of the law or theory of the case. In this respect, crafting and proposing instructions requires a deep under- standing of the governing law, as much so as argu- ing a summary judgment or post-trial motion.
