Wis JI-Civil 180
Five-Sixths Verdict
Agreement by ten (five) or more jurors is sufficient to become your verdict. Jurors
have a duty to consult with one another and deliberate for the purpose of reaching agreement.
If you can do so consistently with your duty as a juror, at least the same ten (five) jurors
should agree in all the answers. I ask you to be unanimous if you can.
At the bottom of the verdict, you will find a place provided where dissenting jurors, if
there be any, will sign their names and state the answer or answers (the number of the verdict
question(s)) with which they do not agree. Either the blank lines or the space below them
may be used for that purpose.

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.
