When the jurors agree upon their verdict, they must be conducted into court by the officer having them in charge.
Before the verdict is accepted, the jury may be polled at the request of either the prosecuting attorney or the defendant. If one of the jurors upon being polled declares that said verdict is not his verdict, the jury must further deliberate upon the case.
