§ 16-9. Questions of Law and Fact

The judicial authority shall decide all issues of law and all questions of law arising in the trial of any issue of fact, and, in committing the cause to the jury, shall direct it to find accordingly, and shall submit all questions of fact to the jury, with such observations on the evidence, for the jury’s information, as it thinks proper, without any direction how the jury shall find the facts. After the cause has been committed to the jury, no pleas, arguments or evidence shall be received before the verdict is returned into court and recorded. (See General Statutes § 52-216 and annotations.)
