Richards v. Kaney

District Court of Appeal of Florida · decided 1986-06-24

Relies on Strouth v. Tennessee · 403 So. 2d 355 - Tafero v. State · Claughton v. Claughton

Decided 1986-06-24

PER CURIAM.

¶1The petition for writ of prohibition seeks to disqualify the trial judge in this dissolu*1300tion of marriage proceeding for alleged prejudice and bias, but fails to allege facts to demonstrate that such prejudice exists. See Rule 1.432(b), Fla.R.Civ.P. The most that can be said for the petition is that it contends that prejudice is demonstrated by adverse pre-trial rulings, which is not a sufficient ground for disqualifying a judge. See Tafero v. State, 403 So.2d 355 (Fla. 1981), rev. denied, 455 U.S. 983, 102 S.Ct. 1492, 71 L.Ed.2d 694 (1982); Claughton v. Claughton, 452 So.2d 1073 (Fla. 3d DCA 1984).

¶2PETITION DENIED.
