Legal Question in Family Law in Louisiana
recusation
My husband is handling his own legal work now after two attorneys and a judge with close ties to opposing attorney. After a long ex-parte communication and many procedural errors he is asking for a recusal. Please tell us the exact wording that must be used to obtain a trial by another judge about the resusal.

Re: recusation
All you need to do is ask for the recusal and specify in detail why you don't think the presiding judge can be fair and impartial. Don't hold your breath that the judge with recuse himself, or that another judge will do it.
