MAY 31 (DAY 63)

The judge spends most of the morning with attorneys from both sides, hammering out the advice to be given to the jurors in anticipation of the closing statements from both sides, and the handing of the case to the jurors for their deliberations. The discussion is long, complex, and highly technical and neither Michael nor the jurors are present.

ARITICLE:

The Jury Can Consider "Past Acts"
Judge Melville said that he would complete speaking with the attorneys on Wednesday morning and then bring the jury back at noon. They will receive their instructions and closing arguments will begin Thursday.

Michael was not present for the discussion of what would be contained in the jury’s instructions.

One instruction that Judge Melville addressed was the importance of Martin Bashir’s documentary, “Living With Michael Jackson.” In that video, the accuser appears with Michael. Michael says that he has shared his bed with children in an innocent, non – sexual way.

Judge Melville said:
"I'm willing to give ... the instruction, 'The video of Living With Michael Jackson is not offered for the truth of what is said except for certain identified passages. The rest is considered hearsay and you can only consider that it aired and its impact if any on Mr. Jackson.'"

The specific parts that the judge was referring to were not specified in court.
