In NY, trial by jury is guaranteed unless waived. https://law.justia.com/constitution/new-york/article-i/section-2/ Even when waived, either party may request jury during trial upon new issues of fact. https://casetext.com/statute/consolidated-laws-of-new-york/chapter-civil-practice-law-and-rules/article-41-trial-by-a-jury/section-4103-issues-triable-by-a-jury-revealed-at-trial-demand-and-waiver-of-trial-by-jury Despite AG James amending charges in August, Judge Engoron refused to allow a jury because it had not been requested in July. https://finance.yahoo.com/news/trump-inflated-net-worth-2-233500128.html
