3 The next phase of the trial will now begin. First, each side may make an opening statement. An opening statement is not evidence. It is simply an outline to help you understand what 4 that party expects the evidence will show. A party is not required to make an opening statement. 5 The plaintiff will then present evidence, and counsel for the defendant may cross-examine. 6 Then the defendant may present evidence, and counsel for the plaintiff may cross-examine. 7 After the evidence has been presented, [I will instruct you on the law that applies to the case and the attorneys will make closing arguments] [the attorneys will make closing 8 arguments and I will instruct you on the law that applies to the case].* 9 10 11

3 We are about to take our first break during the trial, and I want to remind you of the instruction I gave you earlier. Until the trial is over, you are not to discuss this case with 4 anyone, including your fellow jurors, members of your family, people involved in the trial, or anyone else, nor are you allowed to permit others to discuss the case with you. If anyone 5 approaches you and tries to talk to you about the case, please let me know about it immediately. Do not read or listen to any news reports of the trial. Finally, you are 6 reminded to keep an open mind until all the evidence has been received and you have heard the arguments of counsel, the instructions of the court, and the views of your fellow jurors. 7 If you need to speak with me about anything, simply give a signed note to the [marshal] 8 [bailiff] [clerk] [law clerk]* to give to me. 9 I will not repeat these admonitions each time we recess or adjourn, but you will be reminded of them on such occasions. 10 11

DEFENDANT'S REQUESTED INSTRUCTION 5. 2.6 DEPOSITION AS SUBSTANTIVE EVIDENCE

3 [When a person is unavailable to testify at trial, the deposition of that person may be used at the trial.] A deposition is the sworn testimony of a witness taken before trial. The witness 4 is placed under oath to tell the truth and lawyers for each party may ask questions. The questions and answers are recorded. 5 The deposition of James Dennis, which was taken on July 19, 2004 *, is about to be 6 presented to you. Deposition testimony is entitled to the same consideration and is to be judged, insofar as possible, in the same way as if the witness had been present to testify. 7 [Do not place any significance on the behavior or tone of voice of any person reading the 8 questions or answers.] 9 10 11

DEFENDANT'S REQUESTED INSTRUCTION 7. 3.1 DUTIES OF JURY TO FIND FACTS AND FOLLOW LAW

Members of the jury, now that you have heard all the evidence [and the arguments of the 4 attorneys],* it is my duty to instruct you on the law which applies to this case. A copy of these instructions will be available in the jury room for you to consult if you find it 5 necessary. 6 It is your duty to find the facts from all the evidence in the case. To those facts you will apply the law as I give it to you. You must follow the law as I give it to you whether you 7 agree with it or not. You must not be influenced by any personal likes or dislikes, opinions, prejudices, or sympathy. That means that you must decide the case solely on the evidence 8 before you. You will recall that you took an oath promising to do so at the beginning of the case. 9 In following my instructions, you must follow all of them and not single out some and 10 ignore others; they are all equally important. You must not read into these instructions or into anything the court may have said or done any suggestion as to what verdict you should 11 return--that is a matter entirely up to you.

DEFENDANT'S REQUESTED INSTRUCTION 8. 3.3 WHAT IS NOT EVIDENCE

3 In reaching your verdict, you may consider only the testimony and exhibits received into evidence. Certain things are not evidence, and you may not consider them in deciding what 4 the facts are. I will list them for you: 5 (1) Arguments and statements by lawyers are not evidence. The lawyers are not witnesses. What they have said in their opening statements, [will say in their] closing arguments, and 6 at other times is intended to help you interpret the evidence, but it is not evidence. If the facts as you remember them differ from the way the lawyers have stated 7 them, your memory of them controls. 8 (2) Questions and objections by lawyers are not evidence. Attorneys have a duty to their clients to object when they believe a question is improper under the rules of evidence. You 9 should not be influenced by the objection or by the court's ruling on it. 10 (3) Testimony that has been excluded or stricken, or that you have been instructed to disregard, is not evidence and must not be considered. [In addition some testimony and 11 exhibits have been received only for a limited purpose; where I have given a limiting instruction, you must follow it.]* 12 (4) Anything you may have seen or heard when the court was not in session is not 13 evidence. You are to decide the case solely on the evidence received at the trial. 14 15 16 *Court to determine whether to include these phrases based upon the order of proceedings and the events at trial. 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28

If it becomes necessary during your deliberations to communicate with me, you may send a 4 note through the [marshal] [bailiff],* signed by your presiding juror or by one or more members of the jury. No member of the jury should ever attempt to communicate with me 5 except by a signed writing; and I will communicate with any member of the jury on anything concerning the case only in writing, or here in open court. If you send out a 6 question, I will consult with the parties before answering it, which may take some time. You may continue your deliberations while waiting for the answer to any question. 7 Remember that you are not to tell anyone--including me--how the jury stands, numerically or otherwise, until after you have reached a unanimous verdict or have been 8 discharged. Do not disclose any vote count in any note to the court. 9 10 11 *Court to select appropriate option.

DEFENDANT'S REQUESTED INSTRUCTION 13. 7.5 PUNITIVE DAMAGES

If you find for the plaintiff, you may, but are not required to, award punitive damages. The 4 purposes of punitive damages are not to compensate the plaintiff, but to punish a defendant and to deter a defendant and others from committing similar acts in the future. 5 The plaintiff has the burden of proving that punitive damages should be awarded, and the 6 amount, by a preponderance of the evidence. You may award punitive damages only if you find that defendant's conduct was malicious, oppressive or in reckless disregard of the 7 plaintiff's rights. Conduct is malicious if it is accompanied by ill will, or spite, or if it is for the purpose of injuring another. Conduct is in reckless disregard of the plaintiff's rights if, 8 under the circumstances, it reflects complete indifference to the plaintiff's safety and rights, or the defendant acts in the face of a perceived risk that its actions will violate the 9 plaintiff's rights under federal law. An act or omission is oppressive if the person who [performs] [fails to perform] it injures or damages or otherwise violates the rights of the 10 plaintiff with unnecessary harshness or severity, such as by the misuse or abuse of authority or power or by the taking advantage of some weakness or disability or misfortune of the 11 plaintiff.the following:
P.A., ATTORNEYS 4250 NORTH DRINKWATER BOULEVARD FOURTH FLOOR SCOTTSDALE, ARIZONA 85251-3693

1. That those individuals who committed unlawful discrimination did so with full awareness of the federal anti-discrimination laws and with intentional or 13 reckless disregard of those laws; and 12 14 2. That defendant was aware of and condoned the discriminatory acts. 15 If you find that punitive damages are appropriate, you must use reason in setting the amount. Punitive damages, if any, should be in an amount sufficient to fulfill their purposes 16 but should not reflect bias, prejudice or sympathy toward any party. In considering punitive damages, you may consider the degree of reprehensibility of the defendant's conduct and 17 the relationship of any award of punitive damages to any actual harm inflicted on the plaintiff. 18 [Punitive damages may not be awarded against _______.] [You may impose punitive 19 damages against one or more of the defendants and not others, and may award different amounts against different defendants.] [Punitive damages may be awarded even if you 20 award plaintiff only nominal, and not compensatory, damages.] 21 Kolstad v. American Dental Assn., 527 U.S. 526, 542-43 (1999) (citing RESTATEMENT (SECOND) OF AGENCY § 217C). 22 23 24 25 26 27 28

DEFENDANT'S REQUESTED INSTRUCTION 14. 12.2A HOSTILE WORK ENVIRONMENT--HARASSMENT BECAUSE OF PROTECTED CHARACTERISTICS--ELEMENTS

4 The plaintiff seeks damages against the defendant for a [[racially] sexually [other Title VII protected characteristic]] hostile work environment while employed by the defendant. In 5 order to establish a [[racially] sexually [other Title VII protected characteristic]] hostile work environment, the plaintiff must prove each of the following elements by a 6 preponderance of the evidence: 7 1. the plaintiff was subjected (sexual advances, requests for sexual conduct, or other verbal or physical conduct of a sexual nature), [conduct affecting other Title VII 8 protected characteristics]; 9 2. the conduct was unwelcome; 10 3. the conduct was sufficiently severe or pervasive to alter the conditions of the plaintiff's employment and create a [[racially] sexually [other Title VII protected characteristic]] an 11 abusive or hostile work environment;
P.A., ATTORNEYS 4250 NORTH DRINKWATER BOULEVARD FOURTH FLOOR SCOTTSDALE, ARIZONA 85251-3693

12 4. the plaintiff perceived the working environment to be abusive or hostile; and 13 5. a reasonable [woman] [man] in the plaintiff's circumstances would consider the working environment to be abusive or hostile. 14 Whether the environment constituted a [[racially] [sexually] [other Title VII protected 15 characteristic]] hostile work environment is determined by looking at the totality of the circumstances, including the frequency of the harassing conduct, the severity of the 16 conduct, whether the conduct was physically threatening or humiliating or a mere offensive utterance, and whether it unreasonably interfered with an employee's work performance. 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28

DEFENDANT'S REQUESTED INSTRUCTION 15. 12.2C HOSTILE WORK ENVIRONMENT CAUSED BY NON-IMMEDIATE SUPERVISOR OR BY CO-WORKER--CLAIM BASED ON NEGLIGENCE

The plaintiff seeks damages from the defendant for a sexually hostile work environment 4 caused by [[sexual] [racial] [other Title VII protected characteristic]] harassment. The 5 plaintiff has the burden of proving both of the following elements by a preponderance of the evidence: 6 7 1. the plaintiff was subjected to a sexually [racially] [other Title VII protected characteristic]] hostile work environment by a [non-immediate supervisor] [co-worker]; 8 and 2. the defendant or a member of defendant's management knew or should have known of 10 the harassment and failed to take prompt, effective remedial action reasonably calculated to end the harassment. 11 12 A person is a member of management if the person has substantial authority and discretion to make decisions concerning the terms of the harasser's employment or the plaintiff's 13 employment, such as authority to counsel, investigate, suspend, or fire the accused harasser, or to change the conditions of the plaintiff's employment. A person who lacks 14 such authority is nevertheless part of management if he or she has an official or strong duty 15 in fact to communicate to management complaints about work conditions. You should consider all the circumstances in this case in determining whether a person has such a duty. 16 17 The defendant's remedial action must be reasonable and adequate. Whether the defendant's remedial action is reasonable and adequate depends upon the remedy's effectiveness in 18 stopping the individual harasser from continuing to engage in such conduct and in discouraging other potential harassers from engaging in similar unlawful conduct. An 19 effective remedy should be proportionate to the seriousness of the offense. 20 If you find that the plaintiff has proved both of the elements on which the plaintiff has the 21 burden of proof, your verdict should be for the plaintiff. If, on the other hand, the plaintiff 22 has failed to prove either of these elements, your verdict should be for the defendant. 23 24 25 26 27 28

DEFENDANT'S REQUESTED INSTRUCTION 16. PUNITIVE DAMAGES--AFFIRMATIVE DEFENSE

3 If you find that Plaintiff has proved the elements for a punitive damages award and that you wish to award punitive damages, then you must decide whether the 4 defendant has proved by a preponderance of the evidence that defendant had a bona fide policy against discrimination and that the individuals' acts of discrimination were 5 against defendant's policy. 6 If you find that Defendant had a bona fide policy against discrimination you must find that defendant is not liable for punitive damages. 7 8 Kolstad v.
