A quick definition of trifurcated trial:

A trifurcated trial is a type of legal proceeding where a case is divided into three parts and each part is tried separately. This means that instead of having one trial to decide everything, there are three trials to decide different parts of the case. It's like having three mini-trials instead of one big trial. This type of trial is not very common and is usually only used in complex cases where it's difficult to decide everything at once.

A more thorough explanation:

A trifurcated trial is a type of trial where the case is divided into three parts, each part being tried separately. This type of trial is usually used in complex cases where there are multiple issues to be resolved.

For example, in a personal injury case, the trifurcated trial may involve three separate trials to determine liability, damages, and punitive damages.

Another example is a patent infringement case where the trifurcated trial may involve three separate trials to determine infringement, validity, and damages.

The purpose of a trifurcated trial is to simplify the trial process and make it more efficient. By dividing the case into three parts, the parties can focus on one issue at a time, which can save time and resources.
