Notetaking Permitted
You may take notes during the trial, except during the opening statements and closing
arguments. Court personnel will give you writing materials.
Be careful that notetaking does not distract you from carefully listening to and
observing witnesses.
You may rely on your notes during your deliberations. Otherwise, keep them
confidential. Court personnel will collect and destroy any notes after the trial.

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.
