2020 Arkansas Code|Title 16 - Practice, Procedure, And Courts|Subtitle 6 - Criminal Procedure Generally|Chapter 89 - Trial and Verdict|§ 16-89-125. Deliberation of jury

 (a) While the jury is absent, the court may adjourn from time to time as to other business, but it shall be deemed open for every purpose connected with the cause submitted to the jury until a verdict is rendered or the jury discharged.  (b) When the evidence is concluded, the court shall, on motion of either party, instruct the jury on the law applicable to the case. If the defense is the insanity of the defendant, the jury must be instructed to state that fact in their verdict if they acquit him or her on that ground.  (c) A suitable room must be provided for the use of the jury on their retirement for deliberation, with suitable furniture, fuel, lights, and stationery.  (d)  (1) After the cause is submitted to the jury, they must be kept together in the charge of the sheriff, in the room provided for them, except during their meals and periods for sleep, unless they are permitted to separate by order of the court.  (2) Suitable food and lodging must be provided by the sheriff and the expense paid by the county.  (3) Upon retiring for deliberation, the jury may take with them all papers which have been received as evidence in the cause.    (e) After the jury retires for deliberation, if there is a disagreement between them as to any part of the evidence or if they desire to be informed on a point of law, they must require the officer to conduct them into court. Upon their being brought into court, the information required must be given in the presence of or after notice to the counsel of the parties.  (f)  (1) If, after retirement, one of the jurors becomes so sick as to prevent the continuance of his or her duty, or other accident or cause occurs preventing the jury from being kept together or, after being kept together such a length of time as the court deems proper, they do not agree in a verdict and it satisfactorily appears that there is no probability they can agree, the court may discharge them.  (2) In all cases where a jury is discharged, either in the progress of a trial or after the cause is submitted to them, the cause may again be tried at the same or another term of the court.

2020 Arkansas Code|Title 16 - Practice, Procedure, And Courts|Subtitle 6 - Criminal Procedure Generally|Chapter 89 - Trial and Verdict|§ 16-89-126. Verdict generally

 (a) When the jury has agreed upon their verdict, they must be conducted into court by the officer having them in charge, their names called by the clerk, and, if they all appear, their foreman must declare their verdict.  (b) The jury may render either a general or a special verdict.  (c) A general verdict is either “guilty” or “not guilty”. If the verdict is guilty, the jury must affix the punishment if the amount thereof is not determined by law.  (d)  (1) A special verdict is the finding of the facts only, leaving the law arising on the facts to the judgment of the court, with an ascertainment of the punishment in the event that the court pronounces a judgment of conviction on the verdict.  (2) A special verdict must present the conclusions of fact as established by the evidence, and not the evidence of those facts. The facts must be presented so that the court has nothing to do but draw the conclusions of law upon them.  (3) The special verdict must be reduced to writing by the jury and read to them in the presence of the court. It shall not be received by the court unless it pronounces affirmatively on the facts necessary to enable the court to give judgment.    (e)  (1) Upon an indictment for an offense consisting of different degrees, the defendant may be found guilty of any degree not higher than that charged in the indictment and may be found guilty of any offense included in that charged in the indictment.  (2)  (A) The offenses named in each of the subdivisions of this section shall be deemed degrees of the same offense, in the meaning of subdivision (e)(1) of this section:  (i) All offenses of homicide;  (ii) All injuries to the person by maiming, wounding, beating, and assaulting, whether malicious or from sudden passion, and whether attended or not with the intention to kill;  (iii) All offenses of larceny;  (iv) Arson and house-burning;  (v) Burglary and house-breaking; and  (vi) An offense, and an attempt to commit the offense.    (B) Offenses punished capitally are of the highest degree, other felonies are of higher degree than misdemeanor, and those punished by imprisonment are of higher degree than those punished by fine alone.  (C) Where the punishment is the same in kind, the amount that may be inflicted fixes the degree.    (3) Where there is a reasonable doubt of the degree of the offense which the defendant has committed, he or she shall be convicted only of the lower degree.  (4) When the proof shows the defendant to be guilty of a higher degree of the offense than is charged in the indictment, the jury shall find him or her guilty of the degree charged in the indictment.    (f) Upon an indictment against several, if the jury cannot agree as to all, they may render a verdict as to those concerning whom they do agree, and the case as to the others may be tried by another jury.  (g) When there is a reasonable doubt of the defendant's guilt upon the testimony in the whole case, he or she is entitled to an acquittal.

(d) The granting of a new trial places the parties in the same position as if no trial had been had. All the testimony must be produced anew, and the former verdict cannot be used or referred to in evidence or in argument.
