Case Synopsis
This is an original petition for a writ of mandamus or prohibition challenging a district court order denying a request to recuse a district court judge in a family law action. Petitioner asserted that campaign contributions to the reelection campaign of the judge assigned to the case, provided by her ex-husband, his lawyers, and others connected to the divorce, required recusal under the Due Process Clause of the United States Constitution, as well as N.R.S. 1.230 and the Nevada Code of Judicial Conduct.
