I am sure you all have your favorites. How about this one: "Confinement is justified when force is justified by this chapter if the actor takes reasonable measures to terminate the confinement as soon as he knows he safely can unless the person confined has been arrested for an offense." TPC 9.03 | ||

How about that section dealing with the state's burden to overcome the travelling presumption? P.S.--SCOTUS. | |||

I submit this, from a bill that thankfully died in the last two sessions: 3. The attorney representing the state and the attorney representing the defendant are entitled to conduct a meaningful voir dire examination. Questions designed to elicit information necessary for both attorneys to intelligently exercise challenges for cause and for peremptory challenges shall be permitted. By way of illustration only, a question asked during the voir dire examination is proper if the question attempts to discover the views of a prospective juror on an issue that is applicable to the case, and a question asked during the voir dire examination is not proper if the question attempts to commit a prospective juror to reaching a verdict based on particular facts. 4. This article is not intended to restrict a judge's authority to limit the duration of a voir dire examination to a reasonable period. | |||
