I know that courts can be frustrating right now.  As a criminal defense attorney with multiple cases that need to go to trial, my clients are frustrated everyday by being unable to "have their day in court".  Unfortunately, COVID has caused the Courts to do the best they can in keeping the public safe.  However, you may want to have a discussion with your attorney about a non-jury trial.  It's possible that could resolve the case more quickly.
