Re: Right to a jury trial
Attorney probably can, but if trial hasn't taken place, you can probably get that changed. However, you might be wise to take atty's advice on whether you're better off doing that or not.
He probably did it automatically because he knew it was the best legal strategy. Courts don't like jury trials generally.
Statute of limitations in Mass. is 2 years. It could be different in MO.
