Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A summary jury trial involves a shortened trial process in which the jury presents an advisory verdict and the judge encourages the parties to settle their dispute. This situation matches the description given in the question. Court-ordered arbitration involves a neutral party making a binding decision, early neutral case evaluation involves a neutral evaluator giving an opinion on the merits of the case, and a mini-trial involves a shortened trial process but without a jury present.
