INSTRUCTION NO. 1: DUTY OF JURY
1
Members of the Jury: Now that you have heard all of the evidence, it is my duty to instruct
2
3
4
5
you as to the law of the case. A copy of these instructions will be sent with you to the jury room
when you deliberate. You must not infer from these instructions or from anything I may say or do
as indicating that I have an opinion regarding the evidence or what your verdict should be.
It is your duty to find the facts from all the evidence in the case. To those facts you will
6
7
apply the law as I give it to you. You must follow the law as I give it to you whether you agree
with it or not. And you must not be influenced by any personal likes or dislikes, opinions,
8
prejudices, or sympathy. That means that you must decide the case solely on the evidence before
9
you. You will recall that you took an oath to do so.
In following my instructions, you must follow all of them and not single out some and
10
United States District Court
Northern District of California
11
ignore others; they are all important.
INSTRUCTION NO. 2: CLAIMS AND DEFENSES
12
To help you follow the evidence, I will give you a brief summary of the positions of the
13
14
parties.
This case is about an arrest of Plaintiff Mr. Jamil Stubbs by Defendant Officer Brandon
15
16
Orlando for violation of California Penal Code section 647(f), commonly known as "drunk in
public." Mr. Stubbs filed a lawsuit against Officer Orlando claiming that the officer lacked
17
probable cause to arrest him and violated his right to be free from unreasonable searches and
18
seizures under the Fourth Amendment to the United States Constitution. Mr. Stubbs also alleges a
19
claim for false imprisonment/false arrest based on the alleged lack of probable cause for the
20
arrest. Lastly, Mr. Stubbs claims that Officer Orlando retaliated against him for exercising his
21
right to protected speech in violation of the First Amendment to the United States Constitution.
22
23
Mr. Stubbs has the burden of proving these claims.
Officer Orlando asserts that there was probable cause to arrest Mr. Stubbs for being drunk
in public and that he did not arrest Mr. Stubbs to retaliate against his exercise of his right to
24
25
protected speech. Therefore, he contends that he did not violate Mr. Stubbs' rights under the
Fourth Amendment or the First Amendment.
26
27
28
2
INSTRUCTION NO. 3: BURDEN OF PROOF
1
When a party has the burden of proof on any claim or affirmative defense by a
2
preponderance of the evidence, it means you must be persuaded by the evidence that the claim or
3
affirmative defense is more probably true than not true.
4
You should base your decision on all the evidence, regardless of which party presented it.
5
INSTRUCTION NO. 4: WHAT IS EVIDENCE
6
The evidence you are to consider in deciding what the facts are consists of: (a) the sworn
7
testimony of any witness, (b) the exhibits which are received into evidence, and (c) any facts to
8
which the lawyers have agreed.
INSTRUCTION NO. 5: WHAT IS NOT EVIDENCE
9
In reaching your verdict, you may consider only the testimony and exhibits received into
10
evidence. Certain things are not evidence, and you may not consider them in deciding what the
United States District Court
Northern District of California
11
facts are. I will list them for you:
12
a) Arguments and statements by lawyers are not evidence. The lawyers are not witnesses.
13
What they have said in their opening statements, closing arguments, and at other times
14
is intended to help you interpret the evidence, but it is not evidence. If the facts as you
15
remember them differ from the way the lawyers have stated them, your memory of
16
them controls.
b) Questions and objections by lawyers are not evidence. Attorneys have a duty to their
17
clients to object when they believe a question is improper under the rules of evidence.
18
You should not be influenced by the objection or by the court's ruling on it.
19
c) Testimony that has been excluded or stricken, or that you have been instructed to
20
disregard, is not evidence and must not be considered. In addition sometimes
21
testimony and exhibits are received only for a limited purpose; when I have given a
22
limiting instruction, you must follow it.
23
d) Anything you may have seen or heard when the court was not in session is not
24
evidence. You are to decide the case solely on the evidence received at the trial.
25
///

27

1
INSTRUCTION NO. 6: DIRECT AND CIRCUMSTANTIAL EVIDENCE
Evidence may be direct or circumstantial. Direct evidence is direct proof of a fact, such as
2
testimony by a witness about what that witness personally saw or heard or did. Circumstantial
3
evidence is proof of one or more facts from which you could find another fact. You should
4
consider both kinds of evidence. The law makes no distinction between the weight to be given to
5
either direct or circumstantial evidence. It is for you to decide how much weight to give to any
6
evidence.
7
INSTRUCTION NO. 7: RULING ON OBJECTIONS
8
There are rules of evidence that control what can be received into evidence. When a
9
10
lawyer asks a question or offers an exhibit into evidence and a lawyer on the other side thinks that
it is not permitted by the rules of evidence, that lawyer may object. If I overrule the objection, the
question may be answered or the exhibit received. If I sustain the objection, the question cannot
United States District Court
Northern District of California
11
be answered, and the exhibit cannot be received. Whenever I sustain an objection to a question,
12
you must ignore the question and must not guess what the answer might have been.
13
Sometimes I may order that evidence be stricken from the record and that you disregard or
14
ignore the evidence. That means that when you are deciding the case, you must not consider the
15
evidence that I told you to disregard.
16
INSTRUCTION NO. 8: CREDIBILITY OF WITNESSES
17
In deciding the facts in this case, you may have to decide which testimony to believe and
18
which testimony not to believe. You may believe everything a witness says, or part of it, or none
19
of it. Proof of a fact does not necessarily depend on the number of witnesses who testify about it.
In considering the testimony of any witness, you may take into account:
20
a) the opportunity and ability of the witness to see or hear or know the things testified to;
21
b) the witness's memory;
22
c) the witness's manner while testifying;
23
d) the witness's interest in the outcome of the case and any bias or prejudice;
24
e) whether other evidence contradicted the witness's testimony;
25
f) the reasonableness of the witness's testimony in light of all the evidence; and
26
g) any other factors that bear on believability.
27
28
4
1
The weight of the evidence as to a fact does not necessarily depend on the number of
witnesses who testify about it.
2
INSTRUCTION NO. 9: NUMBER OF WITNESSES
3
The weight of the evidence is not necessarily determined by the number of witnesses
4
testifying to the existence or nonexistence of any fact. You may find the testimony of a small
5
number of witnesses as to any fact that is more credible than the testimony of a larger number of
6
witnesses to the contrary. You are not bound to decide any issue of fact in accordance with the
7
testimony of any number of witnesses that does not produce in your minds the belief in the
8
likelihood of truth, as against the testimony of a lesser number of witnesses or other evidence
9
producing such belief in your minds. The test is not which side brings the greater number of
10
witnesses or takes the most time to present its evidence, but which witnesses and which evidence
appeal to your minds as being most accurate and otherwise trustworthy.
United States District Court
Northern District of California
11
INSTRUCTION NO. 10: USE OF NOTES
12
Some of you have taken notes during the trial. Whether or not you took notes, you should
13
14
rely on your own memory of what was said. Notes are only to assist your memory. You should
not be overly influenced by the notes.
15
16
17
INSTRUCTION NO. 11: STIPULATIONS OF FACT
The parties have agreed to certain facts that will be read to you. You should therefore
treat these facts as having been proved.
INSTRUCTION NO. 12: IMPEACHMENT EVIDENCE—WITNESS
18
19
20
The evidence that a witness has been convicted of a felony or has lied under oath on a
prior occasion may be considered, along with all other evidence, in deciding whether or not to
believe the witness and how much weight to give to the testimony of the witness and for no other
21
purpose.
22
23
INSTRUCTION NO. 13: CHARTS AND SUMMARIES NOT RECEIVED IN EVIDENCE
Certain charts and summaries not received in evidence have been shown to you in order to
24
help explain the contents of books, records, documents, or other evidence in the case. They are
25
not themselves evidence or proof of any facts. If they do not correctly reflect the facts or figures
26
27
28
5
1
shown by the evidence in the case, you should disregard these charts and summaries and
determine the facts from the underlying evidence.
2
INSTRUCTION NO. 14: DUTY TO DELIBERATE
3
4
5
6
7
When you begin your deliberations, you should elect one member of the jury as your
presiding juror. That person will preside over the deliberations and speak for you here in court.
You will then discuss the case with your fellow jurors to reach agreement if you can do so.
Your verdict must be unanimous.
Each of you must decide the case for yourself, but you should do so only after you have
8
considered all of the evidence, discussed it fully with the other jurors, and listened to the views of
9
your fellow jurors.
10
Do not hesitate to change your opinion if the discussion persuades you that you should. Do
not come to a decision simply because other jurors think it is right.
United States District Court
Northern District of California
11
It is important that you attempt to reach a unanimous verdict but, of course, only if each of
12
13
you can do so after having made your own conscientious decision. Do not change an honest belief
about the weight and effect of the evidence simply to reach a verdict.
14
INSTRUCTION NO. 15: CONSIDERATION OF EVIDENCE—
CONDUCT OF THE JURY
15
16
Because you must base your verdict only on the evidence received in the case and on these
instructions, I remind you that you must not be exposed to any other information about the case or
17
18
to the issues it involves. Except for discussing the case with your fellow jurors during your
deliberations:
19
Do not communicate with anyone in any way and do not let anyone else
20
communicate with you in any way about the merits of the case or anything to do with it.
21
This includes discussing the case in person, in writing, by phone or electronic means, via
22
email, text messaging, or any Internet chat room, blog, website or other feature. This
23
applies to communicating with your family members, your employer, the media or press,
24
25
and the people involved in the trial. If you are asked or approached in any way about your
jury service or anything about this case, you must respond that you have been ordered not
to discuss the matter and to report the contact to the court.
26
27
28
6
1
Do not read, watch, or listen to any news or media accounts or commentary about
the case or anything to do with it; do not do any research, such as consulting dictionaries,
2
searching the Internet or using other reference materials; and do not make any
3
4
investigation or in any other way try to learn about the case on your own.
The law requires these restrictions to ensure the parties have a fair trial based on the same
5
evidence that each party has had an opportunity to address. A juror who violates these restrictions
6
jeopardizes the fairness of these proceedings, and a mistrial could result that would require the
7
entire trial process to start over. If any juror is exposed to any outside information, please notify
8
the court immediately.
9
10
INSTRUCTION NO. 16: COMMUNICATION WITH COURT
If it becomes necessary during your deliberations to communicate with me, you may send
a note through the marshal, signed by your presiding juror or by one or more members of the jury.
United States District Court
Northern District of California
11
No member of the jury should ever attempt to communicate with me except by a signed writing; I
12
will communicate with any member of the jury on anything concerning the case only in writing, or
13
here in open court. If you send out a question, I will consult with the parties before answering it,
14
which may take some time. You may continue your deliberations while waiting for the answer to
15
any question. Remember that you are not to tell anyone—including me—how the jury stands,
16
numerically or otherwise, until after you have reached a unanimous verdict or have been
17
discharged. Do not disclose any vote count in any note to the court.
18
19
20
INSTRUCTION NO. 17: RETURN OF VERDICT
A verdict form has been prepared for you. After you have reached unanimous agreement
on a verdict, your presiding juror will fill in the form that has been given to you, sign and date it,
and advise the court that you are ready to return to the courtroom.
21
22
INSTRUCTION NO. 18: ALL PERSONS EQUAL BEFORE THE LAW
This case should be considered and decided by you as an action between persons of equal
23
standing in the community, of equal worth, and holding the same or similar stations in life. All
24
persons stand equal before the law, and are to be treated as equals in court.

INSTRUCTION NO. 19: SECTION 1983 CLAIM—INTRODUCTION INSTRUCTION
Mr. Stubbs brings his claims under the federal statute, 42 U.S.C. § 1983, which provides
2
that any person or persons who, under color of law, deprives another of any rights, privileges, or
3
4
5
6
7
8
immunities secured by the Constitution or laws of the United States shall be liable to the injured
party.
INSTRUCTION NO. 20: SECTION 1983 CLAIM AGAINST DEFENDANT IN
INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY—ELEMENTS AND BURDEN OF PROOF
In order to prevail on his § 1983 claim against Officer Orlando, Mr. Stubbs must prove
each of the following elements by a preponderance of the evidence:
a) Officer Orlando acted under color of law; and
9
b) Officer Orlando's acts deprived Mr. Stubbs of his particular rights under the United
10
United States District Court
Northern District of California
11
States Constitution as explained in later instructions.
A person acts "under color of law" when the person acts or purports to act in the
12
performance of official duties under any state, county, or municipal law, ordinance, or regulation.
13
The parties have stipulated that Officer Orlando acted under color of law.
14
15
16
INSTRUCTION NO. 21: PARTICULAR RIGHTS—FOURTH AMENDMENT—
UNREASONABLE SEIZURE OF PERSON—GENERALLY
As previously explained, Mr. Stubbs has the burden to prove that the acts of Officer
Orlando deprived him of particular rights under the United States Constitution. In this case, Mr.
17
Stubbs alleges Officer Orlando deprived him of his rights under the Fourth Amendment to the
18
Constitution when Officer Orlando arrested him.
19
Under the Fourth Amendment, a person has the right to be free from an unreasonable
20
seizure of his person. In order to prove Officer Orlando deprived Mr. Stubbs of this Fourth
21
Amendment right, he must prove the following additional elements by a preponderance of the
22
23
evidence:
a) Officer Orlando seized Mr. Stubbs' person;
b) in seizing Mr. Stubbs' person, Officer Orlando acted intentionally; and
24
c) the seizure was unreasonable.
25
26
27
28
8
1
In this case, the parties stipulate that Mr. Stubbs was seized by Officer Orlando when
Officer Orlando arrested Plaintiff. They also stipulate that the seizure was intentional. Thus, the
2
only issue for you to decide is whether the seizure was unreasonable.

7
INSTRUCTION NO. 22: PARTICULAR RIGHTS—FOURTH AMENDMENT—
UNREASONABLE SEIZURE OF PERSON—PROBABLE CAUSE ARREST
In general, a seizure of a person by arrest without a warrant is reasonable if the arresting
officer had probable cause to believe the plaintiff has committed or was committing a crime in the
officer's presence.
In order to prove the seizure in this case was unreasonable, the plaintiff must prove by a
8
9
preponderance of the evidence that he was arrested without probable cause.
"Probable cause" exists when, under all of the circumstances known to the officer at the
time, an objectively reasonable police officer would conclude there is a fair probability that the
11
United States District Court
Northern District of California
10
plaintiff has committed or was committing a crime in the officer's presence. It is not enough for
12
the officer to subjectively believe that a crime has been committed. Mere suspicion is not
13
enough. Rather, the facts and circumstances known to the officer at the time of the arrest must
14
allow a reasonable person to conclude with a fair probability that a crime had been or was
15
16
committed in the officer's presence. This is an objective, not a subjective, test.
Probable cause must be determined at the time an arrest is made, and facts learned or
evidence obtained as a result of a stop or arrest cannot be used to support probable cause unless
17
18
19
they were known to the arresting officer at the moment the arrest was made. You cannot use
hindsight.
Probable cause exists when, under all of the circumstances known to the officer at the
20
time, an objectively reasonable police officer would conclude there is a fair probability that the
21
plaintiff has committed or was committing a crime in the officer's presence, even if the officer
22
ultimately arrests the suspect for a different crime. In this case, Officer Orlando argues that he
23
had probable cause to believe that Mr. Stubbs had committed at least one of the following: a
24
25
violation of California Penal Code section 647(f), a violation of California Penal Code section
148(a), or public urination. If Officer Orlando proves, by a preponderance of the evidence, that
26
27
28
9
1
he had probable cause to believe that Mr. Stubbs committed any of these offenses in the manner
set forth below, then his arrest of Mr. Stubbs was reasonable.
2
California Penal Code section 647(f)
3
A person violates California Penal Code section 647(f) by (a) being willfully under the
4
influence of alcohol, a drug, a controlled substance or toluene, (b) in a public place, and (c) in
5
such a condition that he or she was unable to exercise care for his or her own safety or the safety
6
of others.
7
California Penal Code section 148(a)
8
Under California law, Officer Orlando had probable cause to arrest Mr. Stubbs if he had
9
probable cause to believe all of the following were true:
a) Mr. Stubbs knew, or reasonably should have known, that Officer Orlando was a
10
police officer performing or attempting to perform his duties.
United States District Court
Northern District of California
11
b) Officer Orlando was lawfully performing his duties. An officer is not lawfully
12
performing his duties if he arrests someone without probable cause.
13
c) Mr. Stubbs willfully and unlawfully resisted arrest or delayed or obstructed Officer
14
15
16
Orlando in the discharge or attempted discharge his duties.
If Officer Orlando did not have probable cause to believe a), b), and c), then he did not have a
lawful basis to arrest Officer Orlando for resisting arrest.
17
Public Urination
18
In this case, Officer Orlando asserts that Mr. Stubbs urinated in public in violation of San
19
Jose Ordinance No. 10.12.110. That ordinance provides that no person shall urinate or defecate in
20
public except when using a urinal, toilet or commode located in a bathroom, restroom or other
21
22
structure enclosed from public view.
INSTRUCTION NO. 23: SPECIAL INSTRUCTION ON FIRST AMENDMENT RIGHTS
The First Amendment protects the right of a person to verbally criticize, protest, or seek
23
clarification of police action, without risking arrest.

INSTRUCTION NO. 24: PARTICULAR RIGHTS—FIRST AMENDMENT—"CITIZEN"
PLAINTIFF
2
As previously explained, Mr. Stubbs has the burden to prove that the acts of Officer
3
Orlando deprived him of particular rights under the United States Constitution. In this case, Mr.
4
Stubbs alleges Officer Orlando deprived him of his rights under the First Amendment to the
5
Constitution when Officer Orlando arrested him for questioning Officer Orlando's statements and
6
7
assertions that Mr. Stubbs had urinated in public.
Under the First Amendment, a citizen has the right to free expression. In order to prove
Officer Orlando deprived Mr. Stubbs of this First Amendment right, he must prove the following
8
9
additional elements by a preponderance of the evidence:
a) Mr. Stubbs engaged in speech protected under the First Amendment;
b) Officer Orlando took action against Mr. Stubbs; and
11
United States District Court
Northern District of California
10
c) Mr. Stubbs' protected speech was a substantial or motivating factor for Officer
12
13
14
15
16
Orlando's action.
A substantial or motivating factor is a significant factor.
INSTRUCTION NO. 25: FALSE ARREST WITHOUT WARRANT BY PEACE
OFFICER—ESSENTIAL FACTUAL ELEMENTS
Mr. Stubbs claims that he was wrongfully arrested by Officer Orlando. To establish this
claim, Mr. Stubbs must prove all of the following:
17
a) that Officer Orlando arrested Mr. Stubbs without a warrant;
18
b) that Mr. Stubbs was harmed; and
19
c) that Officer Orlando's conduct was a substantial factor in causing Mr. Stubbs' harm.
20
21
22
23
INSTRUCTION NO. 26: FALSE ARREST WITHOUT WARRANT—AFFIRMATIVE
DEFENSE—PEACE OFFICER—PROBABLE CAUSE TO ARREST
Officer Orlando claims the arrest was not wrongful because he had the authority to arrest
Mr. Stubbs without a warrant.
If Officer Orlando proves, by a preponderance of the evidence, that there was probable
24
cause to believe that Mr. Stubbs had committed a crime in Officer Orlando's presence, then
25
Officer Orlando had the authority to arrest Mr. Stubbs without a warrant. If, however, you find
26
27
28
that the only offense Officer Orlando had probable cause to believe was being committed was
11
1
public urination, then Officer Orlando must also prove, by a preponderance of the evidence, that
there was probable cause to believe that grounds for nonrelease existed. At the time of Mr.
2
Stubbs' arrest, Officer Orlando could only take Mr. Stubbs into custody for the offense of public
3
urination if Mr. Stubbs also did the following: refused to sign a written promise to appear, had no
4
satisfactory identification, or refused to provide a thumbprint or fingerprint. Please note that the
5
grounds for nonrelease only affect this state law claim for false arrest. In other words, the bases
6
for nonrelease are not a factor with respect to Mr. Stubbs federal false arrest claim under the
7
Fourth Amendment. The Fourth Amendment claim is to be decided as set forth in Instruction
8
Nos. 19-22.
INSTRUCTION NO. 27: SUBSTANTIAL FACTOR
9
A substantial factor in causing harm is a factor that a reasonable person would consider to
10
have contributed to the harm. It must be more than a remote or trivial factor. It does not have to
United States District Court
Northern District of California
11
be the only cause of the harm.
12
INSTRUCTION NO. 28: DAMAGES—PROOF
13
It is the duty of the Court to instruct you about the measure of damages. By instructing
14
you on damages, the Court does not mean to suggest for which party your verdict should be
15
rendered.
16
If you find for Mr. Stubbs, you must determine his damages. Mr. Stubbs has the burden
17
of proving damages by a preponderance of the evidence. Damages means the amount of money
18
that will reasonably and fairly compensate the plaintiff for any injury you find was caused by the
19
defendant. You should consider the following:
a) the nature and extent of the injuries; and
20
b) the mental, physical, and/or emotional pain and suffering experienced.
21
It is for you to determine what damages, if any, have been proved.
22
23
Your award must be based upon evidence and not upon speculation, guesswork or
conjecture.

INSTRUCTION NO. 29: PUNITIVE DAMAGES
If you find for Mr. Stubbs, you may, but are not required to, award punitive damages. The
purposes of punitive damages are to punish a defendant and to deter similar acts in the future.
3
4
Punitive damages may not be awarded to compensate a plaintiff.
With respect to his claims under federal law, punitive damages, and their amount, must be
5
proved by a preponderance of the evidence. With respect to his state law false arrest claim, Mr.
6
Stubbs has the burden of proving by clear and convincing evidence that punitive damages should
7
be awarded, and, if so, the amount of any such damages. Clear and convincing evidence is a
8
higher standard of proof than proof by a preponderance of the evidence. When a party has the
9
burden of proving any claim or defense by clear and convincing evidence, it means you must be
10
United States District Court
Northern District of California
11
persuaded by the evidence that the claim or defense is highly probable.
Under either standard of proof, you may award punitive damages only if you find that
Officer Orlando's conduct that harmed Mr. Stubbs was malicious, oppressive or in reckless
12
13
disregard of Mr. Stubbs' rights. Conduct is malicious if it is accompanied by ill will, or spite, or if
it is for the purpose of injuring the plaintiff. Conduct is in reckless disregard of the plaintiff's
14
rights if, under the circumstances, it reflects complete indifference to the plaintiff's safety or
15
rights, or if the defendant acts in the face of a perceived risk that its actions will violate the
16
plaintiff's rights under federal law. An act or omission is oppressive if the defendant injures or
17
damages or otherwise violates the rights of the plaintiff with unnecessary harshness or severity,
18
such as by the misuse or abuse of authority or power or by the taking advantage of some
19
20
weakness or disability or misfortune of the plaintiff.
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 but
21
should not reflect bias, prejudice or sympathy toward any party. In considering the amount of any
22
punitive damages, consider the degree of reprehensibility of the defendant's conduct, including
23
whether the conduct that harmed the plaintiff was particularly reprehensible because it also
24
caused actual harm or posed a substantial risk of harm to people who are not parties to this case.
25
You may not, however, set the amount of any punitive damages in order to punish the defendant
26
for harm to anyone other than the plaintiff in this case.
27
28
13
1
In addition, you may consider the relationship of any award of punitive damages to any
actual harm inflicted on the plaintiff.
2
Punitive damages may be awarded even if you award plaintiff only nominal, and not
3
4
5
compensatory, damages.
INSTRUCTION NO. 30: NOMINAL DAMAGES
The law which applies to this case authorizes an award of nominal damages. If you find
6
for Mr. Stubbs but you find that Mr. Stubbs has failed to prove damages as defined in these
7
instructions, you must award nominal damages. Nominal damages may not exceed one dollar.
