F. Lee Bailey requested something be placed on the record, after which Judge Ito delivered standard jury admonitions reminding jurors not to discuss the case, form opinions, allow outside communications, or begin deliberations before the matter is submitted. The proceeding was brief and administrative.

# 1 MR. BAILEY:

May we put something on the record?

# 2 THE COURT:

Yes. All right. Ladies and gentlemen, please remember all of my admonitions to you. Don't discuss the case among yourselves, form any opinions about the case, don't allow anybody to communicate with you with regard to the case, don't conduct any deliberations until the matter has been submitted. And as far as the jury is concerned, we will stand in recess until one o'clock.
