§ 1945. Return of jury for further consideration
If the judges of the Superior Court before whom a cause is tried consider that the
jury has mistaken the law or evidence material to the issue or has not paid proper
attention thereto, they may cause it to return to a second and third consideration
of the cause. If the jury does not alter or retract its verdict, the same shall be
received. (Amended 1973, No. 193 (Adj. Sess.), § 3, eff. April 9, 1974.)
