Trial by jury.
A trial that has no jury is called a bench trial. A defendant may choose to waive his right to a jury trial and have his case heard and decided by a judge only. See the link below for a simple description of this type of trial.
A trial with no jury is called a "bench trial." In a bench trial, the judge serves as the trier of fact, determining the guilt or innocence of the defendant based on the evidence presented. This type of trial is often used in civil cases or in certain criminal cases where the defendant waives their right to a jury trial.
A "cf jury trial" typically refers to a "civil jury trial," which is a legal proceeding where a jury is tasked with determining the facts of a civil case, as opposed to a criminal case. In civil jury trials, juries usually decide issues like liability and damages. The term "cf" may also suggest a comparison or reference to another type of trial, such as a bench trial, where a judge makes the determinations instead of a jury.
Grand Jury
A trial with no jury is called a "bench trial." In a bench trial, the judge serves as the sole decision-maker, evaluating the evidence and determining the verdict. This type of trial is often chosen for its efficiency or when legal issues are more complex and require a judge's expertise.
The judge's function in a trial by jury, is to rule on matters of law and evidence and ensure the trial is conducted properly in accordance with applicable law. But, it is the jury's verdict which IS the final decision. Depending upon the type of trial the judge MAY have some leeway in in sentencing or levying a punishment or fine.
A petit jury in a criminal trial decides whether or not a defendant is guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. The other type of jury, the Grand Jury, decides whether or not there is sufficient evidence to bring charges against a defendant prior to the trial. It does not decide whether or not the defendant is guilty. Therefore the Grand Jury is not bound by the standard of beyond a reasonable doubt.
