Jury instructions are instructions for jury deliberation that are written by the judge and given to the jury. At trial, jury deliberation occurs after evidence is presented and closing arguments are made.
The judge reads the instructions to the jury. This is commonly referred to as the judges charge to the jury. In giving the instructions, the judge will state the issues in the case and define any terms or words that may not be familiar to the jurors.
All jurors should deliberate and vote on each issue to be decided in the case. When it is time to count votes, it is the presiding jurors duty to see that this is done properly. In a civil case, the judge will tell you how many jurors must agree in order to docHub a verdict.
Jury instructions are an important component of a trial because they focus the jury on the specific issues and laws applicable to the case being tried. Jury instructions should identify the issues the jury will need to decide and help them understand the legal principles of the case.
The judge will advise the jury that it is the sole judge of the facts and of the credibility (believability) of witnesses. He or she will note that the jurors are to base their conclusions on the evidence as presented in the trial, and that the opening and closing arguments of the lawyers are not evidence.

The law is clear in California and in every other jurisdiction: Both direct evidence and circumstantial evidence are acceptable as a means of proof, according to the standards California lays out for instructions to juries. Neither is entitled to any greater weight than the other.
A jury instruction is a guideline given by the judge to the jury about the law they will have to apply to the facts they have found to be true. The purpose of the instructions is to help the jury arrive at a verdict that follows the law of that jurisdiction.
Four examples of circumstantial evidence include physical evidence, human behavior, indirect witness testimony, and scientific evidence. A combination of these forms of evidence is often enough to convict someone, but they are still not as powerful as a direct witness of the crime.
