My question involves a marriage in the state of: NC: Served with AOA and CC, was deposed, attended mediation to no avail. No court date scheduled yet but will be heard in Superior Court since amount claimed is over $10k. How can I avoid a jury at the trial since the plaintiff is an emotional "drama queen" who may sway any female on a jury. She has only a few emails intercepted from her spouse's email w/o his permission and 2 personal meetings which did not involve any sex (over 70 yrs old) & emails seem to be just talk & not fulfilled. No cirminal conversation before separation with no intent to return to the marriage. Spearation occured over 1 yr ago but plaintiff has not filed to finaliize before settling the suit first. Can this be heard by judge only & can emails accessed w/o permission be entered as admissable. Please respond asap. Thank you.
