(a) When Due; How Presented. In order to exercise the right to jury trial, a party
must make a demand for jury trial, including a removed or transferred action, as
may be required by FED. R. CIV. P. 38(b) and 81(c)(3)(A). A designation of jury
trial on the civil cover sheet is not sufficient for purposes of this rule.
(b) Within Discretion of Court. A request for a jury otherwise presented will be
addressed to the sound judicial discretion of the court.
(c) Removed Actions; Law and Equity Actions. A civil action removed to federal
district court from a chancery court of the State of Mississippi will be designated
for non-jury trial.
