North Carolina Pattern Jury Instructions for Criminal Cases, 2020 Edition: Volumes 1-3

North Carolina Pattern Jury Instructions for Criminal Cases (complete set, 3 volumes) are sample jury instructions organized by criminal law topic. Trial judges use them for particular cases based on the relevant law and facts and share them with juries as guidance for reaching a decision in their cases. The instructions are created and compiled by The Pattern Jury Instruction Committee, made up of superior court judges assisted by the School of Government. The Committee creates annual supplements, based on changes in statutory and case law. The 2020 edition includes all recent annual supplements.
