CRIST, Judge.

Defendant appeals his conviction, following a bench trial, for driving while his license was revoked. Before trial, the judge had refused to disqualify himself. We reverse and remand.

On January 26, 1989, the first date set for trial, defendant entered a plea of guilty to the amended charge of Driving Without a Valid License. § 302.020, RSMo 1986. The trial judge refused to accept the plea and reset the ease for trial on February 16, 1989.
