What is a non jury trial?

A non-jury trial is a legal proceeding where there is no jury, and instead, the judge makes all the decisions in the case. This type of trial can occur in both criminal and civil cases. In a non-jury trial, the judge listens to the evidence presented by both sides and decides the outcome of the case based on the law. The judge is the ultimate decision-maker in this type of trial, and their decision is final. Non-jury trials are often faster than jury trials, and they often involve cases where there are complex legal issues or where a jury may not be able to comprehend the intricacies of the case. Non-jury trials are also sometimes used when the parties agree to waive their right to a jury trial.
