Korer v. Hoffman

Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit

Decided May 13, 1954No. 11069PublishedCited by 35 opinions

1Opinion of the Court

MAJOR, Chief Judge.

The question for decision is whether a writ of mandamus may appropriately issue directing the disqualification of respondent because of his personal bias and prejudice, as alleged by petitioner in an affidavit presented under Title 28 U.S.C.A. § 144. After mature consideration of all facets of the situation disclosed, we have reached the conclusion that in the exercise of our sound discretion the question must be answered in the negative. In view of this conclusion, the reason for which will be subsequently stated, no more than a brief statement of the facts is necessary.
