The following excerpt is from Protech Servs., Inc. v. Gillette, C083975 (Cal. App. 2018):
As Protech points out, the right to a jury in a civil case can be waived only as set forth in Code of Civil Procedure 631, subdivision (f). (Cooks v. Superior Court (1990) 224 Cal.App.3d 723, 727.) Agreement after-the-fact is not one of the statutorily approved ways to waive a jury.
