| Summary: | The Kentucky Instructions to Juries two volume set provides examples of instructions that are uniform, concise & specific. Volume One, recently revised by Kentucky Supreme Court Justice William S. Cooper, presents instructions for criminal cases, including new instructions on the controversial crime of fleeing/evading police. Volume Two, prepared by Judge John S. Palmore, contains civil instructions that include topics from Bailments to Wrongful Discharge as well as expanded commentary illuminating the law & explaining its evolution on such topics as punitive damages. References to relevant cases following the sample instructions provide source material to aid the attorney in drafting final instructions. Commentary by the authors provides essential background information, explains the rationale for the language used in the instruction & offers illuminating comparisons to similar or related instructions. |
