Rule 38.1 Demand For Jury.

(A) When Due; How Presented. Within ten days after the service of the answer in a civil action, any party may request a jury by writing the request conspicuously upon the complaint or answer, or by separate written request. A designation of jury trial on the civil cover sheet shall not be sufficient for purposes of this rule.

(B) Within Discretion of Court. A request for a jury otherwise presented will be addressed to the sound judicial discretion of the court.

(C) Removed Actions; Law and Equity Actions. A civil action removed to federal district court from a circuit court of the State of Mississippi shall be designated for jury trial; a civil action removed to federal district court from a chancery court of the State of Mississippi shall be designated for non-jury trial.
