Typically in a DUI trial, the jury is presented with evidence that is intended to assist them in determining whether the defendant “beyond a reasonable doubt”, committed the DUI crime in question. A trial is for both the prosecution and the defense to argue their cases. The prosecution makes efforts to obtain a conviction, and the defense makes efforts to obtain a verdict of not guilty and an exoneration of the charges. After both sides have argued their cases, the jury discusses as a group to come up with a decision regarding the defendant’s guilt or innocence.
