    Statement of Justice Viviano Granting Defendant-Appellant’s Motion to Disqualify

       VIVIANO, J. On July 21, 2016, defendant filed a motion to disqualify me from this case.

Having presided over defendant’s trial, I would have recused myself from the case, regardless of

defendant’s motion. Therefore, I would grant defendant’s motion.
