A quick definition of summary trial:

A summary trial is a quick and simple way to settle a disagreement or case without a jury. It is a type of legal proceeding that can be used to resolve a dispute in a prompt and efficient manner. It is different from a regular trial because there is no jury, and the judge makes the decision. It is often used for minor cases or disputes that do not require a full trial. It is also known as a summary proceeding.

A more thorough explanation:

A summary trial is a non-jury proceeding that settles a controversy or disposes of a case in a relatively prompt and simple manner. It is a type of summary proceeding, which is a legal process that is faster and less formal than a regular trial.

For example, in a summary trial, a judge may hear arguments from both sides and make a decision without a full trial. This type of proceeding is often used in small claims court or in cases where the facts are not in dispute.

Another example of a summary proceeding is a supplementary proceeding, which is held in connection with the enforcement of a judgment. In this type of proceeding, the court identifies and locates the debtor's assets that can be used to satisfy the judgment.

Overall, a summary trial is a useful tool for resolving legal disputes quickly and efficiently, without the need for a full trial.
