To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The line of limitation beyond which counsel should not tres- pass is found in a consideration of the functions of a jury. The jury, under their oaths, decide upon disputed questions of fact, from the evidence before them. They have nothing to do with determining questions of law, nor with facts which 6 83 THE TRIAL AND ITS INCIDENTS. are undisputed, nor vnth facts not in evidence. It is for the judge to decide all points of law, and to apply the law to undisputed facts. The summing up is addres...sed to the jury. It should therefore be confined to facts in evidence and com- ment upon them, and should avoid going outside the evidence and the discussion of law points. (Williams v. BrooTclyn Elevated R. B. Co., 126 K Y., at p. 102 ; Halpem v. Nassau Elec. R. R. Co., 16 App. Div. 90 ; Lesser v. Perkins, 39 Hun, 341.) 157. The judge's charge. — After the completion of the summing-up addresses the judge delivers his charge to the jury. Here again the difference of the functions of judge and jury is to be remembered, and it is the duty of a judge in giving his charge not to trespass upon the function of the jury, which is to pass upon disputed questions of fact.
