COLJI-Crim. I:03.INT

If you found the defendant guilty of one or more of the following

charges [list, in the disjunctive, all felony charges], you should disregard

the remainder of this instruction and sign Section A of the verdict form for

each charge to indicate your verdict of guilty or not guilty on each charge.

If, however, you found the defendant not guilty of all of the

following charges [list, in the conjunctive, all felony charges], you should

sign Section A of the verdict form for each charge to indicate your verdict

of not guilty, and you should also answer the following verdict question in

Section B of the verdict form for each charge:

Did you find the defendant not guilty solely based on the defense of

insanity? (Answer “Yes” or “No”)

The Court reminds you that the prosecution has the burden to prove

beyond a reasonable doubt each element of the crime charged, including

that the defendant was not insane at the time of the commission of the act.

If you decided that the only element of the crime charged that the

prosecution failed to prove beyond a reasonable doubt is that the

defendant was sane at the time of the commission of the act, you should

mark “Yes” in the appropriate place in Section B of the verdict form, and

have the foreperson sign the designated line in that section of the verdict

form. If you decided that the prosecution failed to prove any other element

beyond a reasonable doubt, you should mark “No” in the appropriate

place in Section B of the verdict form, and have the foreperson sign the

designated line in that section of the verdict form.
