How should the new instructions be cited? The full cite should be to "Judicial Council of California Civil Jury Instructions (year)".
These official Judicial Council Civil Jury Instructions are referred to as "CACI" (pronounced "Kay See"), which stands for California Civil Instructions.
Non- standard jury instructions are referred to as special instructions that are specially tailored to ensure compliance with the law and rules in a given case. Most states have pattern instructions that have been approved for use in different types of cases.
The Bluebook does not provide a format for the California jury instructions but the instructions provide their own suggested citation formats on the backs of their title pages: CACI Recommended Citation.
In California, there are two main sets of civil jury instructions. One is an official plain-English set known as CACI (California Civil Jury Instructions). The other is BAJI (Book of Approved Jury Instructions). Either can be used.
