The self-represented applicant brought a motion requesting that the triage judge recuse herself from his application for judicial review due to potential bias.
The applicant argued that the judge was formerly a partner at a law firm that had represented an employee of the respondent insurer in a divorce proceeding over six years prior.
The court dismissed the motion, finding that a reasonable person would not apprehend bias given the passage of time, the judge's lack of personal involvement with the individual, and the individual's peripheral role in the current proceedings.
