IDJI 109

INSTRUCTION NO. ________

        As you can well surmise, this case is important to both sides, and each party to the suit is entitled to your full and fair consideration. You are not to associate in any way with the parties, their attorneys, agents or witnesses. You are likewise not to discuss the case with anyone, or permit anyone to discuss the case with you, whether within or without the courthouse, during the course of the trial; and you are not yourself to contact anyone in an attempt to discuss or gain a greater understanding of the case. In the event that anyone attempts to discuss the case with you or to influence your decision, you will report it to me promptly. You are not even to discuss the case among yourselves until you retire to the jury room to deliberate at the close of the entire case and you are not to form or express any opinion on the case until you have heard all of the testimony and have had the benefit of my instructions as to the law which applies to the case. [You should not go to the place where any alleged event occurred unless the court orders a supervised jury visit to that place.]
