[RPPTL LandTen] Jury Trial Waivers/Guaranty

[Neil B. Shoter]

Question for the litigators:  Lease contains a common mutual jury trial waiver. Tenant defaults. Landlord sues Tenant and the Guarantor.  The Guaranty does not have jury trial waiver.    What happens if the Guarantor wants a jury trial on both his liability and the underlying defenses to Tenant's underlying obligations??   Any experience with this?
