Fed. R. Civ. P. 38

(a) RIGHT PRESERVED. The right of trial by jury as declared by

the Seventh Amendment to the Constitution—or as provided by a

federal statute—is preserved to the parties inviolate.

(b) DEMAND. On any issue triable of right by a jury, a party may

demand a jury trial by:

(1) serving the other parties with a written demand—which

may be included in a pleading—no later than 14 days after the

last pleading directed to the issue is served; and

(2) filing the demand in accordance with Rule 5(d).

(c) SPECIFYING ISSUES. In its demand, a party may specify the issues that it wishes to have tried by a jury; otherwise, it is considered to have demanded a jury trial on all the issues so triable. If

the party has demanded a jury trial on only some issues, any

other party may—within 14 days after being served with the demand or within a shorter time ordered by the court—serve a demand for a jury trial on any other or all factual issues triable by

jury.

(d) WAIVER; WITHDRAWAL. A party waives a jury trial unless its

demand is properly served and filed. A proper demand may be

withdrawn only if the parties consent.

(e) ADMIRALTY AND MARITIME CLAIMS. These rules do not create

a right to a jury trial on issues in a claim that is an admiralty

or maritime claim under Rule 9(h).
