Ohh gotcha! mzmolly Oct 2023 #20

Drumpf? I think not, this all for show. Malpractice is the remedy. It doesn't happen on appeal. n/t rzemanfl Oct 2023 #21

That would be a separate trial, with Trump suing his attorney Ms. Toad Oct 2023 #25

Good to know. mzmolly Oct 2023 #27

Maybe not asking for a jury trial was not an accidental oversight. wnylib Oct 2023 #34

Yep canetoad Oct 2023 #52

I appreciate you making this distinction! Drum Oct 2023 #51

No. They are saying there was no option for jury trial. Silent Type Oct 2023 #32

Court of equity. They could have asked, so the judge was not wrong. rzemanfl Oct 2023 #37

LOL... thank you. You posted just as I hit the "reply" button! TygrBright Oct 2023 #11

Also, "ineffective assistance of counsel" only applies in criminal cases. rzemanfl Oct 2023 #12

I suspect that Trump himself wanted a bench trial because he has lost too much with Bev54 Oct 2023 #15

Civil trial, not criminal rules...different ballpark. Alexander Of Assyria Oct 2023 #46

Nope, you can change your mind to a bench trial. Bev54 Oct 2023 #50

You can try! 2 years later after multiple rulings...good luck!! Alexander Of Assyria Oct 2023 #56

Rulings have nothing to do with this, rulings are made by the Judge. Bev54 Oct 2023 #58

Precisely, can't wait two years and multiple rulings,,,then want a jury!!? 14 day rule for reason! Alexander Of Assyria Oct 2023 #59

Do some research! Bev54 Oct 2023 #60
