[Your Name] [Your Address] [City, State, ZIP Code] [Email Address] [Phone Number] [Date] [Judge's Name] [Judge's Designation] [Name of the Court] [Address of the Court] [City, State, ZIP Code] Re: Trial Setting for Non-Jury Trial — [Case Number] Dear Judge [Judge's Last Name], I hope this letter finds you in good health and high spirits. I am writing to request the setting of a non-jury trial for the aforementioned case number. As the plaintiff/defendant in this matter, I believe that a non-jury trial is the most appropriate and efficient way to resolve the disputes and reach a just conclusion. Utah's law allows parties involved in civil cases to opt for a non-jury trial, also known as a bench trial, where the judge acts as the sole decision-maker instead of a jury. This type of trial is often chosen when the nature of the case involves complex legal issues, highly technical evidence, or the parties involved generally believe that a judge, with their expertise and experience, would render a more informed and fair decision. In this particular case, which involves [brief description of the case, including relevant keywords such as contract dispute, personal injury, property damage, etc.], I believe that a non-jury trial will allow for a more focused examination of the legal merits and factual evidence presented. It will provide an opportunity for the court to apply legal principles to the case without undue influence from subjective interpretations that might arise in a jury trial. Moreover, a non-jury trial can significantly streamline the litigation process, as there is no need to select a jury, present evidence to a lay audience, or allocate time for deliberations. This expeditious approach would not only save the court's time but also mitigate costs for both parties involved. If the court deems it appropriate, I kindly request that a trial setting for a non-jury trial be scheduled at the earliest convenience. I will gladly coordinate with opposing counsel to determine mutually agreeable dates and ensure a smooth progression of the proceedings. Thank you for considering this request. I have faith in the court's wisdom and impartiality in adjudicating this case. Please do not hesitate to contact me should you require any additional information or clarifications. Respectfully, [Your Name]
