Section (G)(4) of the new rule:  This allows for an easier opportunity for residents to demand juries.  Jury demands are generally delaying tactics as a miniscule number of landlord-tenant cases actually go to a jury trial.  Non-payment cases virtually never go to a jury.  Making it easier for residents (and legal aid) to demand a jury just makes it easier to delay cases for no reason.  If you have had cases delayed because of unwarranted jury demands, you should explain how that affected your situation in response to this proposed change.
