From January to May, we are
focusing this series on Louisiana-specific materials intended to be helpful for
practice (or that are just really interesting). Check back each month for
updates!
Last month’s post discussed Trial Handbook for Louisiana
Lawyers , a book that provides a wide range of information related to
practice in LA district courts. The resource this week focuses on one aspect of
courtroom practice: jury instructions.
Louisiana Civil Jury Instruction Companion Handbook is a great
resource for practicing attorneys because usually lawyers write and submit jury
instructions without pattern instructions to follow. This book compiles jury
instructions that were actually given in particular cases with additional notes
to serve as a guide for practitioners. It is designed as a “companion handbook”
to work in conjunction with another popular treatise on LA jury instructions, Louisiana Civil Law Treatise, Civil Jury
Instructions (available in print KFL 542.6 .J64 and on WestlawNext).

ed. 2014). (KFL 542.6 .L68)
