Abstract: Where a judge, absent a jury has listened to the testimony, heard the evidence, determined the credibility of parties and witnesses, and made a determination in a child custody case, one may wonder if continuing on a case thereafter dealing with similar issues, opens the door for a reasonable person to question a judge’s ability to remain impartial.
