NOONAN, Circuit Judge,
concurring and dissenting.
I concur in the court’s opinion except as to its holding on Mathison’s claim of ineffective assistance of counsel. The usual way of rul*552ing on such claims is on a motion for habeas corpus. See United States v. Petty, 1 F.3d 695, 696 (8th Cir.1993). The record here is so sparsely developed that I cannot form an opinion on the merits of the claim. Mathi-son’s account of his counsel’s failure to move for recusal in itself warrants more inquiry.
