Opinion
No. 84-952.
July 10, 1984.
Daniels Hicks and Louise H. McMurray, Paige Catlin, Miami, for petitioner.
Sibley, Giblin, Levenson Glaser and Allan M. Glaser, Miami Beach, for respondents.
Before NESBITT, DANIEL S. PEARSON and JORGENSON, JJ.
We cannot on the record before us conclude that the statements set forth in the final judgment upon which the petitioner based her application to disqualify the trial judge were so unrelated to the issues being tried as to constitute other than adverse judicial rulings which under well-settled law are not a basis for disqualification for bias or prejudice. See Wilson v. Renfroe, 91 So.2d 857 (Fla. 1957); State ex rel. Locke v. Sandler, 156 Fla. 136, 23 So.2d 276 (1945). Whether such rulings were correct or not is a matter to be determined on appeal from the final judgment.
Accordingly, the petition for writ of prohibition is
Denied.
