submission to the jury

Read a random definition: de coronatore exonerando

A quick definition of submission to the jury:

Submission to the Jury: When a judge gives a case to a group of people called the jury to decide what they think happened and what should be done about it. This happens after everyone has talked about what they think happened and the judge has explained what the rules are.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Submission to the jury is the process where a judge hands over a case to the jury for them to consider and make a verdict. This usually happens after all the evidence has been presented, arguments have been made, and the jury has been given instructions.

Example 1: In a criminal trial, the prosecution and defense will present their cases to the jury. Once both sides have finished, the judge will submit the case to the jury for them to decide if the defendant is guilty or not guilty.

Example 2: In a civil trial, the plaintiff and defendant will present their cases to the jury. The judge will then give the jury instructions on how to apply the law to the facts of the case. After this, the judge will submit the case to the jury for them to decide who is at fault and what damages should be awarded.

These examples illustrate how submission to the jury works in both criminal and civil trials. The judge hands over the case to the jury after all the evidence has been presented and the jury has been given instructions on how to apply the law. The jury then deliberates and makes a verdict based on the evidence and instructions given to them.
