Keep in mind, the opinions on this site are for the most part speculation and are not necessarily the opinions of the company WITHOUT PREJUDICE
In my post in which I am replying to, copied below this, I took the post that I was replying to/questioning as being a quote from the decision of the judges decision. I see now that this quote was not the Judges quote but rather Lori,s quote as per part of her affidavit. So, there is nothing to question, sorry for the mistake, in haste I made this mistake by not thoroughly examining the source of the posters content. This is what happens, when one has limited facts and does not see all the information, a small picture is created, that does not represent all the facts available. This is why DD is so important, to have as many facts and checks at your disposal, so you are able to get the most complete and bigger picture, or else suffer, a wrong impression. A lesson learned to never take anything at face value and dont make assumptions based on limited info. Although I know this, I was preoccupied with multiple things and momentarilly let down my guard on checking and verifying the source before proceeding with comment.
Sorry for any misconceptions that may have arisen from this post below.
thank you

In relation to this post;
Wonder why the judge used this in the paragraph in your post;" I personally knew to be inaccurate or incorrect," ?

"If the judge has prior personal knowledge of disputed facts in the case "
A judge who has grounds to recuse himself is expected to do so. If a judge does not know that grounds exist to recuse themselves (but does) the error is harmless. If a judge does not recuse themselves when they should have known to do so, they may be subject to sanctions, which vary by jurisdiction. Depending on the jurisdiction, if an appellate court finds a judgment to have been made when the judge in question should have been recused, it may set aside the judgment and return the case for retrial.

Perhaps the above info pertains to the U.S. legal system, or perhaps pertains to the Canadian system as well. I am not implying that this has occured, merely entertaining research on a subject trying to identify and understand our legal system better, and perhaps answer some questions that may arise.
