Black's Law Dictionary

On the trial of an action by a jury, is a recapitulation of the evidence adduced, in order to draw the attention of the jury to the salient points. The counsel for each party has the right of summing up hls evidence, lf he has adduced any, and the judge finally sums up the whole in hls charge to the jury.

Smith, Act. 157. And see State v. Ezzard, 40 S. O. 312, 18 S. E. 1025.
