The recusal application was dismissed because the judge's friendship with Dr MacCormick and the indirect connections to the witness were too remote, there was no personal or direct interest by the judge or Dr MacCormick in the proceeding, the entities were not parties, and a fair‑minded lay observer would not reasonably apprehend that the judge could not impartially decide the case including credibility issues.
