Description
(A) In some jurisdictions, once the jury’s deliberations have begun, the jurors are not permitted to separate until a verdict has been reached. If a verdict cannot be reached before a normal mealtime or day’s end, deliberations may be stopped with the permission of the court, and the jury will be fed or housed under the supervision of court attendants. Although the jury is kept together during these recesses, it is not permitted to deliberate outside the jury room.
