This scenario describes a summary jury trial, as both parties present their cases before a jury, who then presents an advisory verdict. Afterward, the judge encourages them to settle their dispute. This is a common process in a summary jury trial, which aims to promote settlement while also providing the parties with an idea of how a jury might rule in the case.
