An MCLE exclusive—pattern criminal jury instructions for the Superior Court—now updated for 2019. This third edition of the Massachusetts Superior Court Criminal Practice Jury Instructions reflects a combined effort of bench and bar under the editorial leadership of Hon. Kathe M. Tuttman of the Massachusetts Superior Court. The new edition is a reliable and comprehensive compendium of instructions that can be tailored by the reader—with confidence that the language offered has been carefully drafted and closely edited. The 2018 Edition includes new instructions, modifies and updates existing instructions, provides updated citations and references, and offers the full text of the Supreme Judicial Court's model homicide instructions, updated during 2018. Instructions have been simplified and streamlined to use plain language formulations for clarity where possible. The long-awaited instructions contained in this reference book are designed to enhance the quality of criminal advocacy in the Superior Court. They comprise a reliable, objective, and comprehensive compendium of carefully drafted content designed to aid both prosecution and defense. This book updates the chargebook first relied upon by the Commonwealth's judiciary in 1995. Over the years, its instructions have been cited numerous times in the Superior Court.
This is only a partial list of the content included in this new edition of the Massachusetts Superior Court Criminal Practice Jury Instructions .
We at MCLE trust that you will find this new edition useful in your criminal law practice, and valuable in keeping your law library current.
