CRIM PRO-JURY TRIAL WAIVER

Summary

The bill lets people charged with petty offenses that carry only a fine and no possible jail time or mandatory driver’s license suspension give up their right to a jury trial without appearing in court. They can submit a written waiver by mail or through an approved online system, after which the case is scheduled for a bench trial. This streamlines handling of minor traffic and ordinance violations.
