Tennessee Consents to Proceed before Magistrate Judge in a Misdemeanor Case is a document that allows a defendant to waive their right to a trial by jury and instead be tried before a magistrate judge in a misdemeanor case. This document is used to allow a defendant to move forward with the prosecution of their case without having to go through a jury trial. There are two types of Tennessee Consents to Proceed before Magistrate Judge in a Misdemeanor Case: (1) Unconditional Waiver of Jury Trials, and (2) Conditional Waiver of Jury Trials. The Unconditional Waiver of Jury Trials allows a defendant to waive their right to a jury trial without any conditions. This waiver is generally irrevocable, meaning that once the defendant signs it, they cannot withdraw their waiver and request a jury trial. The Conditional Waiver of Jury Trials allows a defendant to waive their right to a jury trial, but with the condition that the defendant may withdraw their waiver before the trial and request a jury trial. This type of waiver allows the defendant to reserve the right to a jury trial, but also allows them to move forward with the prosecution of their case if they choose to do so.
