What are " pattern jury instructions" for the state of Kentucky ? (as in something a actuary would use to figure a life estate)

Pattern jury instructions are standardized instructions used by a court to "charge" juries prior to their deliberations. Each side has a chance to argue for the instructions they wish to use, and for any changes to the "standard" instructions. I doubt they would have anything to do with how to do the calculation, unless the standard tables are a part of the pattern instructions ... but a Kentucky trial lawyer would need to answer this question. You don't need an actuary to calculate a life estate. You just need the proper life expectancy table and middle school math skills.

Realize that a life estate means that he gets the use of the property for as long as he lives. Why do you need instructions? No virus found in this message. Checked by AVG - www.avg.com Version: 2012.0.2221 / Virus Database: 2441/5290 - Release Date: 09/24/12
