Is there any statutory claim of judicial bias against the trial judge?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from People v. Jones, B303469 (Cal. App. 2021):

Jones did not move to disqualify the trial judge under the Code of Civil Procedure and therefore forfeited any statutory claim of judicial bias. (See People v. Peoples (2016) 62 Cal.4th 718, 786-787 (Peoples).)
