RULE 3.440. RENDITION OF VERDICT; RECEPTION AND
RECORDING

When the jurors have agreed upon a verdict they shall be
conducted into the courtroom by the officer having them in charge.
The court shall ask the foreperson if an agreement has been
reached on a verdict. If the foreperson answers in the affirmative,
the judge shall call on the foreperson to deliver the verdict in
writing to the clerk. The court may then examine the verdict and
correct it as to matters of form with the unanimous consent of the
jurors. The clerk shall then read the verdict to the jurors and,
unless disagreement is expressed by one or more of them or the
jury is polled, the verdict shall be entered of record, and the jurors
discharged from the cause. No verdict may be rendered unless all of
the trial jurors concur in it.
