The eight week murder trial of Philip Polkinghorne is nearing a verdict, with the jury beginning deliberations this morning.
The judge summed up the case yesterday.
The Auckland eye surgeon's accused of killing his wife, Pauline Hanna; his defence argues she took her own life.
Herald reporter Craig Kapitan told Ryan Bridge the jury only has two decisions - if it was murder or suicide.
He says it likely won't be a quick decision, and if the jury need to deliberate past today, court won't sit tomorrow.
