Bench Trial
In a jury trial, the case is heard and decided by a group of impartial individuals (the jury). In a bench trial, the case is heard and decided by a judge without a jury. The judge determines the outcome based on the evidence and arguments presented in court.
Since no jury is present during a bench trial, it is solely the judge who decides guilty or not guilty.
In most cases, you have the right to a trial by jury, but this is not a requirement. In a criminal case, if the defendant opts to have a bench trial, there will be no jury. In a civil case, if neither party requests a jury, it will be a bench trial.
A "bench trial" is a case heard by a judge without a jury. In a jury case, the jury decides the facts of the case -- what is true and not true -- and the judge decides the law. In a bench trial, the judge determines the facts and the law.
