The court held that the recusal application fails: a removal application under s33 PAO is part of estate administration and does not automatically disqualify the administration judge; the alleged embarrassment was irrelevant because the propriety and scope of prior orders are not determinative of the administrators' fitness where actions fall within court sanction and there is no allegation of misrepresentation or non-disclosure; and the defendant failed to show a real possibility of bias from confidential ex parte materials, so recusal was not required.
