activein force · 2019-01-01 – presentcompiled-edition

Y ou have now completed your jury service in this case. On behalf of all

the judges of the court, please accept my thanks for your time and

effort.

Now that the case is over, you may choose whether or not to discuss the

case and your deliberations with anyone.

[I remind you that under California law, you must wait at least 90 days

before negotiating or agreeing to accept any payment for information

about the case.]

Let me tell you about some rules the law puts in place for your

convenience and protection.

The lawyers in this case, the defendant[s], or their representatives may

now talk to you about the case, including your deliberations or verdict.

Those discussions must occur at a reasonable time and place and with

your consent.

Please tell me immediately if anyone unreasonably contacts you without

your consent.

Anyone who violates these rules is violating a court order and may be

fined.

[I order that the court’s record of personal juror identifying information,

including names, addresses, and telephone numbers, be sealed until

further order of this court.

If, in the future, the court is asked to decide whether this information

will be released, notice will be sent to any juror whose information is

involved. Y ou may oppose the release of this information and ask that

any hearing on the release be closed to the public. The court will decide

whether and under what conditions any information may be disclosed.]

Again, thank you for your service. Y ou are now excused.
