So you got yourself a ticket and would like to have it dismissed. Ok, what we're going to do in this option is prove conflict of interest therefore a fair trial is impossible. Before you say anything else to the judge ask him these three questions.
- Ask: "Am I entitled to a fair trial?" Of course the answer will have to be yes, thus, locking the judge into this standard of law which of course we all expect.
- Ask: "Can I get a fair trial if there's a conflict of interest?" The answer in this case will have to be no because its common knowledge that if there's a conflict of interest there's a built in interest/incentive to rule against you.
- Ask: "Who do you represent here?" Now this question will almost certainly aggravate the judge because at that point they'll know (if they already don't) that you have them cornered because this is the same thing as asking them who are they acting on behalf of.
Most, if not all, judges will HATE to answer this question and there's a very good chance they will refuse to answer. The reason is because this question will expose their conflict of interest over your getting a fair trial. The reason of course is because they are acting on behalf of the state who's also the pretended plaintiff in the case against you. Its no different than somebody suing you and acting as the judge at the same time.
Now here in California, like probably in all states I would assume, a judge is bound by law to disclose all information which may be relevant to the question of disqualification. Here's the California law on page 17 of this document titles "California Code of Judicial Ethics."
Disqualifacation
(3)(E)(2) In all trial court proceedings, a judge shall disclose on the record information that is reasonably relevant to the question of disqualification under Code of Civil Procedure section 170.1, even if the judge believes there is no actual basis for disqualification.
