New Criminal Pattern Jury Instructions Issued by Tenth Circuit

There is a new 2011 edition of the Tenth Circuit Pattern Jury Instructions (Criminal). They are not yet posted on the Tenth Circuit's website, but they can be found on WestLaw. The Introduction says the Committee has updated all Apprendi references in light of case law developments, comments and use notes have been updated, and some instructions have been substantially revised, such as those for narcotics, coercion and duress, voluntariness of confessions, instructions before trial (in light of computer and cell phone access by jurors), and partial verdict instructions. References to unpublished decisions have been removed, as have most references to other circuit decisions.
