UJI 13-111. Note taking permitted.

You are allowed, but not required, to take notes during the trial. Note paper will be provided for this purpose. Notes should not take the place of your independent memory of the evidence. When taking notes, please remember the importance of paying close attention to the trial. Listening to and watching witnesses during their testimony will help you to assess their appearance, behavior, memory and whatever else bears on their believability. At each recess you may leave your notes on your chair or take them with you to the jury room. At the end of the day, the bailiff will store your notes and return them to you when the trial resumes. At no time will anyone read your notes. At the end of the case the notes will be collected and destroyed.
