Re: judicial commission

Whether the judge should ask the questions or not really depends on the questions. Court should ask defendant if they're ok with court remaining on the case or if they feel court can give a fair and impartial trial to the defendant.

If defendant feels a fair and impartial court is not possible a motion to recuse should be filed.
