Whether or not the case would be tried before a jury would depend generally on (1) whether either party requests a jury and (2) whether the case presents questions of fact (which a jury or a judge, if there is no jury, can consider) or only questions of law (which are for a judge to decide). Even if there are questions of fact, if nobody requests a jury, it will be a bench trial.
And with no more knowledge than I have, it would be baseless to speculate on likelihood of dismissal.
