3 Cards On This Topic:

Trial court did not err in striking untimely motion to DQ judge where petitioner delayed over seven months before asserting the alleged ground for disqualification.

Since motion to DQ judge filed immediately after discovery of grounds, it was timely.

Challenge timely if filed as soon as discovered, even if trial started.
