Trevascus v R [2021] NSWCCA 104
In this decision, the CCA held that oral jury directions are always necessary, even if written directions are provided. If a written document is given to the jury, it needs to be read out and explained, and ordinarily the jury should not be asked to read the document on their own outside of court.
