Original Note:
The prosecution was seeking disgorgement (return of ill-gotten gains). A jury cannot make those kinds of calculations, so typically this kind of trial doesn't have a jury. The defense also didn't oppose a bench trial. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-trial-no-jury-fraud-new-york-judge-arthur-engoron/
