Does a judge who awarded custody of a minor have a presumption that the judge was not familiar with the record?
California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from Randy B., In re, 132 Cal.Rptr. 720, 62 Cal.App.3d 89 (Cal. App. 1976):
Relative to the general claim that the judge who awarded custody of the minor was not familiar with the record, this court will not make such a presumption. (People v. Connolly, supra.) The appellant has failed to point out in the record any indication that the court was not familiar with its contents when making the custody award.
