§ 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.)
