How have the courts interpreted "cautions to the jury" in a civil case?

MultiRegion, United States of America

The following excerpt is from United States v. Rusnak, 981 F.3d 697 (9th Cir. 2020):

cautions to the jury were sufficient. Cf. United States v. Kerr , 981 F.2d 1050, 105354 (9th Cir. 1992) (holding that an instruction that the jurors "are the sole judges of the credibility of the witnesses" was insufficient only because the prosecutor created a "crisis situation" by "portraying the government as the guarantor of the testimony's truthfulness").2
