Vermont Model Criminal Jury Instructions CR03-031
RECOLLECTION OF EVIDENCE
Let me remind you that in deliberating upon your verdict, you are to rely solely and entirely upon your own memory of the testimony.
If, during your deliberations, you are unable to recall with any degree of accuracy, a particular part of the testimony, or a part of these instructions, you may do the following:
(1) Write out your question, and have the foreperson sign it;
(2) Knock on the door of the jury room; and
(3) Deliver your note to the Court Officer, to give to me.
After the attorneys have been consulted, and the record has been reviewed, I shall decide what action to take, and I shall tell you my ruling.

Unofficial copy of government-published law, reproduced from official sources with full provenance. Not an official publication; verify against official sources before relying on it in a filing. Records in the 'guidance' corpus, and only that corpus, are sub-regulatory (interpretive guidelines, survey procedures) and are not binding law. Validity bounds follow each jurisdiction's declared temporalBasis.
