Standardized Civil Jury Instructions for the District of Columbia is an essential time-saving practice guide for research and drafting of civil jury instructions. This newest edition includes text of pattern jury instructions, the authorities on which each instruction are based, practice comments and other references to relevant materials.

Standardized Civil Jury Instructions for The District of Columbia represents not only recent comments, but relies on a foundation of model instructions and annual revisions dating back to 1941, when the "Blue Book" was first published. Sarah Knapp and the D.C. Bench & Bar diligently review and edit instructions and comments to provide lawyers with more than just the instructions, but also an understanding of the derivation of each instruction and the rationale underlying it.
