Oh, interesting! I hadn't considered that he'd ask for a bench trial . . . normally defendants prefer a jury trial.


There is no way in hell he would choose a bench trial with this judge.

What sort of questions can the lawyers for the defense ask to try to get an impartial jury?

This would be my primary concern. I would really be concerned about my identity as a juror getting out. I haven't been called since before covid so it will probably happen soon.

Yes, at least a month, but I don't recall the exact amount, could be 2. You get the notice and have 10 days to return the form or do it on line.
