The answer is simple: The law doesnt allow it. The lengthy instructions, which the judge read to jurors right before they started deliberating, are meant to serve as a road map and to help them apply the relevant law to the facts as they have found them.
Preliminary instructions occur at the beginning of a trial and typically inform the jury on the basics of reviewing evidence and other responsibilities. During the trial, courts may give limiting instructions that inform jurors how to evaluate specific evidence and curative instructions to correct evidentiary errors.
Dont lose your temper, try to bully, or refuse to listen to the opinions of other jurors. Dont mark or write on exhibits or otherwise change or injure them.

Necessity legally excuses the crime charged. The defendant must prove necessity by a preponderance of the evidence. A preponderance of the evidence means that you must be persuaded that the things the defendant seeks to prove are more probably true than not true.
