The AI checks your answers before you download

12 checks built for this form, so a wrong date or a missing answer is caught before anyone else sees it.

Case Number Consistency Across Pages

This check ensures that the 'CASE NUMBER' entered in the header of Page 1 is identical to the 'CASE NUMBER' entered in the header of Page 2. Maintaining consistency is critical for ensuring that all pages of the document are correctly associated with the same legal case upon filing. A mismatch could lead to the document being rejected or misfiled.

Defendant Name Consistency Across Pages

This validation verifies that the 'DEFENDANT' name entered on Page 1 matches the 'DEFENDANT' name on Page 2. Consistent naming across the document is essential for legal clarity and to prevent administrative errors. If the names do not match, it could create ambiguity about the subject of the filing.

Mandatory Case Identification

This check confirms that the primary case identification fields ('DEFENDANT', 'CASE NUMBER', and 'COUNTY OF') are all populated. These fields are the minimum required information to identify the specific case and jurisdiction the form pertains to. A submission with any of these fields missing would be ambiguous and should be rejected.

Valid California County

This validation ensures the value entered in the 'COUNTY OF' field is a valid, officially recognized county in California. This is important for routing the document to the correct superior court system and ensuring legal jurisdiction is properly recorded. An invalid county name would result in a processing failure and rejection of the form.

Instruction Row Integrity

For each row in the jury instruction list, this check verifies that if an 'Instruction No.' is provided, then both a 'Description' and an 'Outcome' (via radio button) must also be provided. An instruction entry is incomplete and unusable without all three components. This prevents the submission of partial, ambiguous data that would require manual follow-up.

Exclusive Outcome Selection

For each jury instruction listed, this validation ensures that exactly one outcome ('Given', 'Refused', 'Given as modified', or 'Withdrawn') is selected. An instruction cannot have multiple or zero outcomes. This check prevents logically impossible or incomplete submissions and ensures the record of the instruction's fate is clear.

What is the purpose of Form CR-604?
Form CR-604, the Capital Case Attorney List of Jury Instructions, is a mandatory California court form used to create an official record of all written jury instructions proposed in a criminal case where the death penalty may be imposed.

You must check one of the four radio buttons for each instruction to show its status: 'Given' (used as is), 'Given as modified' (used with changes), 'Refused' (the court rejected it), or 'Withdrawn' (your party retracted it).
What should I do if I have more jury instructions than will fit on the form?
