Dishonorable Disqualification
As noted in the post below, Judge Flanagan is out of the case. Part of the process to disqualify him afforded us the opportunity to depose him under oath on the witness stand.
For roughly 2 hours we were able to question him about his bias and judicial misconduct in the case.
Throughout the process, Judge Flanagan admitted and/or conceded to the facts of his bias and misconduct that we had presented. He really had no choice as it was black and white.
He did, however, also make false statements under oath...which was consistent with his numerous lies in orders throughout this litigation. Of course, we were able to prove he lied with hard evidence.
We presented this evidence (and much more) following the hearing to the presiding judge. We also served a copy of this evidence on Judge Flanagan.
The evidence was so overwhelming (including proof that Judge Flanagan lied on the witness stand) that he had to be removed from the case.
Rather than face the facts and charges in the motion, Judge Flanagan finally recused himself ... albeit with a retaliatory order that contained no less than 10 more lies.
His order is a violation of the law ... a judge cannot retaliate against a party for exercising their right to seek recusal of a judge. Then again, Judge Flanagan has shown complete disregard for the law.
Having given him several opportunities to honorably recuse himself, Judge Flanagan instead brought shame and embarrassment on himself, his family, and the judiciary, resisting disqualification to the bitter end.
