Thresa Williams v. The Honorable W. Wallace Kent
Thresa WILLIAMS, Petitioner, v. the Honorable W. Wallace KENT, Respondent
Opinion
PER CURIAM.
Petitioner seeks a writ of mandamus to compel a district judge to disqualify himself under 28 U.S.C. § 144 . Assuming that a writ might appropriately issue in such a case, the affidavit of bias filed; by petitioner in this ease was not sufficient in that it failed to show bias or prejudice personal to the district judge. Price v. Johnston, 9 Cir., 125 F.2d 806, 811 ; cf. Berger v. United States, 255 U.S. 22 , 41 S.Ct. 230 , 65 L.Ed. 481 . The-petition is therefore denied.
