Legal Question
Am I Entitled to a Jury Trial?
I was provoked into a fight by a man. He went to the city police department and made out a warrant for my arrest claiming 3rd degree assault. The police fingerprinted and photographed me and gave me a date to appear in municipal court to have my case heard by a municipal judge.
I do not believe that this is fair. If someone accuses me of a crime, I believe that I have the right to be heard by a jury...and that is what I want.
How do I go about doing that, or can I even do that?
