““The standard which federal courts use is whether the charge of lack of impartiality is grounded on facts that would create reasonable doubt concerning the judge’s impartiality, not in the mind of the judge himself, or even, necessarily, in the mind of the litigant filing the motion, but rather in the mind of a reasonable person with knowledge of all the circumstances. [Citations omitted.]” (Emphasis added.)”
3 later decisions quote this exact passage · from the majority““He was well prepared, lodged numerous objections to evidence, and argued thoroughly his motion for a directed verdict and a motion in limine. Counsel’s misunderstanding of the law concerning defendant’s prior convictions and the circumstances under which the defendant could plead the Fifth Amendment were his only apparent errors. Additionally, it is not apparent the defendant would have been acquitted in the absence of his counsel’s error, since the jurors may have chosen to believe the State’s version of the events even if defendant’s credibility had not been shaken.” 236 Kan. at 83-84.”

Rice““The facts of this case show only that the trial judge’s son was on the staff of the Sedgwick County district attorney’s office as an assistant district attorney during die pendency of diis action. The facts do not support any finding whatsoever diat the defendant’s right to a fair trial was impeded, infringed upon, or denied by die connection here disclosed. We find that defendant was not prejudiced in any way, and his sentence and conviction should not be set aside on this ground.” 9 Kan. App. 2d at 355 .”
