Heavily Annotated
Texas Criminal Jury
Charges is
more than a book of jury charges. It delves deeply into the
substantive law, devoting nearly as many pages to interpretive and
supporting law as to instructions.
Before each set of
charges you will find an analysis of the underlying law, complete with
exceptions, caveats, and practice tips. This detailed exposition of
the law includes quotations from the governing statutes, citation-heavy
summaries of common law, critical discussions of wayward decisions, and
definitions.
Then, after each set of
charges, come supportive decisions, interpretive or opposing cases, tactical
suggestions, and use notes.
The
Accepted Authority

published in 1964, Texas Criminal Jury Charges has been the primary
source of criminal instructions in Texas. Judges and attorneys
throughout the state rely on its jury forms and law, and regularly
compliment the book:
-
“The most comprehensive jury charges.”
-
“I use it all the time.”
-
“Excellent.”
-
“I’ve used it since
1965.”
-
“It’s the only one of
its kind.”
