Yesterday, December 23, 2004 attorneys for Plaintiffs successfully filed Motion to disqualify Justice Moyer from sitting as the Judge on the Moss v. Bush matter based on the fact that he has an apparently conflict of interest in that the election challenge of the Presidency potentially affects his race (and the suits are effectively collateral actions) The Ohio Code of Judicial ethics, Canon 3 specifically requires that any judge with any financial interest in the outcome of litigation recuse him or herself or be disqualified. (Similar Codes of Judicial ethics exist for virtually every Judicial office.)

Thoughts?

2. I don't know what successfully filed means.

Does that mean that they were successful in giving it to the clerk and the clerk was succssful in stamping the document "filed?"

Seems like it's a motion to disqualify. Don't know why "successfully" needs to be added. Maybe the snow and ice prevented them from filing? Strange use of the word. Makes it appear that the motion was granted but the "fine print" indicates that its just a motion.

6. Yeah, that's what I thought too.

I think "successfully filed" may mean they made it through the snowstorn and got it stamped at the courthouse :)

Today's activity certainly shows the difference between a successfully filed motion and a motion that has been granted.
