: the (new) legal writerJudge Kane on jury instructions
Judge John L. Kane (D. Colo.) has written an excellent article on jury instructions. He addresses not only their content (plain English, please), but also the processes for creating and using them. His ideas are not in wide use in the courts I?m familiar with. After reading his article, I hope that changes.
The article is in the Winter 2010 issue of Litigation (ABA Litigation Section), but anyone can download a free PDF copy by clicking here.
