First defendant’s application for judge to recuse himself on the grounds of alleged race discrimination.
Held: Refused: ‘I have done my best to consider and give proper attention to the matters upon which she addressed me yesterday, but I have concluded that there is nothing which should cause me to hold that the test for apparent bias is satisfied. Nor am I aware of any other reason why I should recuse myself. In those circumstances, it is my duty to dismiss the application.’
