Trial

If either party should request a jury trial and pay the appropriate </strong>fee within five days of the date of service of the citation, both the plaintiff and the defendant will be required to appear on the assigned court date and time for a pre-trial hearing to examine the issues to be brought before a jury.  If the Judge determines there are sufficient issues involved, the case will be set for jury trial at a later date.  If there are not sufficient issues to be brought before a jury then the Judge may render a judgment at that time.
