Book Description

Excerpt from A Manual Relating to Special Verdicts and Special Findings by Juries: Based on the Decisions of All the States The writer originally intended to include in the book the subjects of Agreed Case and Verdict Subject to Opinion of the Court, as being in certain respects related to special ver dicts; but the idea was abandoned, after some material had been prepared, because these methods of disposing of a case are not in common use, and especially for the reason that they do not involve the determination of facts by the jury. In Agreed Case, or Case Stated, the jury is dispensed with al together; while the Verdict Subject to Opinion is required only where there is no dispute as to the facts, the questions involved being purely of law, and is, moreover, directed by the court, whose act it is, and not that of the jury.
