Las cuestiones de hecho en casos de delito grave y, salvo lo dispuesto en leyes especiales, en casos de delito menos grave siempre que originalmente se presentare la acusación en el Tribunal de Primera Instancia y fueren también de la competencia del Tribunal de Distrito habrán de ser juzgadas por el jurado a menos que el acusado renunciare expresa, inteligente y personalmente al derecho a juicio por jurado. Antes de aceptar la renuncia de un acusado a su derecho a juicio por jurado, el juez de instancia tiene la obligación de explicar al acusado lo que significa la renuncia de dicho derecho y de apercibirle de las consecuencias del mismo.
El tribunal podrá conceder el juicio por jurado en cualquier fecha posterior a la lectura de la acusación. Si la renuncia al jurado se produce una vez comenzado el juicio, es discrecional del juez que preside el juicio el acceder a que el mismo continúe por tribunal de derecho con el consentimiento del Ministerio Público.
