A decision reached by a jury is called a "verdict." This verdict determines the outcome of a trial, typically indicating whether the defendant is guilty or not guilty in criminal cases, or finding for the plaintiff or defendant in civil cases. The verdict is usually based on the evidence presented during the trial and the jury's deliberations. Once reached, it is announced in court and becomes part of the official record.
