N.C.P.I.—Crim. 230.60A
HARASSMENT OR INTIMIDATION OF OR COMMUNICATION WITH A JUROR’S SPOUSE. FELONY.
The defendant has been charged with [harassing] [intimidating] (or)
[communicating with] a juror's spouse.
Now I charge that for you to find the defendant guilty of this offense,
the State must prove three things beyond a reasonable doubt:
First, that a person 2 was [serving as a [grand] [petit] juror)
[[summoned) [drawn] as a prospective juror].
Second, that the defendant [harassed] [intimidated] [communicated
with] that juror's spouse.
And Third, that the defendant intended thereby to influence the official
action of that juror as a juror.
So I charge that if you find from the evidence beyond a reasonable
doubt that on or about the alleged date a person was [serving] [summoned]
[drawn] as a juror and that the defendant [harassed] [intimidated]
[communicated with] that juror's spouse and that the defendant intended
thereby to influence the official action of that juror as a juror, it would be
your duty to return a verdict of guilty. However, if you do not so find or have
a reasonable doubt as to one or more of these things, it would be your duty
to return a verdict of not guilty.
