ORDER
Cynthia J. Little, representing herself, has filed an affidavit in support of her request to disqualify the Honorable Brenda R. Gilbert from presiding in Cause No. DR-20-17 in the Sixth Judicial District Court, Park County, pursuant to § 3-1-805, MCA.
The basis for the affidavit appears to be Little's disagreement with the District Court's rulings in this matter. However, § 3-1-805(1)(b), MCA, provides that an affidavit cannot be based solely on rulings in the case which can be addressed on appeal.
IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that the motion to disqualify Judge Gilbert is VOID and thereby DENIED.
The Clerk is directed to provide copies of this Order to the Clerk of the District Court of Park County for notification to all parties in Cause No. DR-20-17, and to the Honorable Brenda R. Gilbert.
