In cases involving complex facts or legal subtleties, a bench trial may be preferred by the defendant. A bench trial will often be less time-consuming, less complex, and more informal than a jury trial.<ref>https://brettpodolsky.com/jury/jury-vs-bench-trials-the-advantages-and-disadvantages-of-both</ref>
