Legal Question in Family Law in Ohio

Judicial Misconduct - Vacating Decision?

A visiting judge in Ohio profited from a

Child Custody Trial by grossly fabricating

his invoices. (He billed the state for dates

not worked, and for a date after the final

decision.)

Does judicial misconduct that seemingly

does not go to the merits of a case mean

the decision can be vacated?
