Judge Recusal Case Impact
Summary
Requesting a judges recusal can delay proceedings as a new judge is assigned. Valid reasons like bias or conflict of interest are crucial for approval. In New Mexico, if a judge agrees to recuse, the case is reassigned within the same jurisdiction. For discovery, prepare interrogatories, document requests, and subpoenas. Allegations of fraud may allow for treble damages. Subpoenas can be issued for IRS and bank records, even if over seven years old, though retrieval may be challenging. CPAs typically retain records for seven years. Digital communications can be subpoenaed under the production of records discovery rule.Full Conversation

My case is in the court of appeals now waiting to be remand, so I can enforce the discovery rules, and file my interrogatories, should I ask the judge to recuse himself now, or wait till the appeals court resolve my case
It's usually best to wait until the Court of Appeals resolves your case before filing a motion to recuse the judge. Recusal motions can complicate ongoing proceedings, so it's often more strategic to address it once the case is remanded.
