Rule 1.10 – Recusal

May 14, 2021 | Family Law, New Hampshire

All grounds for recusal that are known or should reasonably be known prior to trial or hearing shall be incorporated in a written motion for recusal and filed promptly with the court. Grounds for recusal shall be immediately brought to the attention of the court. Failure to raise a basis for recusal shall constitute a waiver of the right to request recusal on such ground. If a record of the proceedings is not available, the Court shall make a record of the request, the Court’s findings, and its order. The Court’s ruling on the motion shall issue promptly. If the motion is denied, the Court’s ruling shall be supported by findings of fact with respect to the allegations contained in the motion.
