Summary
The proposal repeals the current rule that a defendant can forgo a jury trial with just the court’s consent. It adds a requirement that both the state (government) and the court must agree before a defendant can have the case heard by a judge instead of a jury. The change would affect all criminal defendants in Missouri and would be decided by voters in a 2026 election.
