OBJECTION # 2

a. The Trial Court lacked jurisdiction to make discretionary
findings §§ fact and conclusions of law in her dismissal of
2/23/2015.Any diacretional act performed by a disqualified judge

1.

_ le void. Burkott v. State 196 S.W.Sd 892 (Tex.App.--Texattana

2006). Here, the Trlnl Coutt failed or refused to make any findings
of fact or conclusions of law eo to whether or not the should

be tecused. When faced with a Motlon for Recuoal, e Trlal Court

is faced with too opolono; GRANT the motion, ot, in the alternative,
paso the motion on to another jn§ge for disposition. The Triol
_Court'o limited findings of fact and conclusions cf low operated

an their con error, lndoed, en o structural error further denying
Appllcant his right to o trial court without partiallty. See
Abd!§eggn:ova v.Stete 243 S.W.Bd 191 (Tex.App.~~Sen Antonio,
2007)(Einding this cone Teiel Court to have bean biased end prejudiced
in a capital murder case requiring reversal); ¢eln v. $tete

947 s.n.ze 262, 264 (Tex.crim.epp. 1997); aloe vt.sse¢e 41 s.n.aa
61 S.w.Bd 1295 138 (Tex.Crlm.App. 2000); Tex.Conot. Art. V,
§l-a(S)A. Easlly, the trial Court's limited findings of fectl

and conclusions of law, ii any, purposefully cir¢umvented the
“reaconeble member of the public et large,“ analysis required

pet Cain, ougco.;lg!§§gcgggrove v. dental engrat, and Aclzona
v. Fulmlnonte 699 9.$. 279 (1991).

~oa;tcrzon # 3
e. In Eeet v. Scott 55 l.Sd 995 (Sth Clr. 1995), the court held
that "the opportunity £or on evidentiary leaving le a federal
habeas corpus proceeding la mandatory only where there le a
factual dispute onlch, it resolved ln the pettitoner'e favor,
would entitle the£petitioner to relief and the petitioner bee
not received a full end fair evidentiary hearing in state court.“
(clting Townsend v.¢SSin 372 BUS. 293 (1963)). Horo, the Tclol

ny

Court has exercised limited jurisddteion that operato$ to deny
Applieant eha bpportuhity.to envoké eha appropriate standard
of evidenee used.in answering the question of whether or not
she Trial Cour; should have recused hersel£@ An eitdanc£ary
hearing is r&quired to ascertain the meri§ocioua £aats whaza
