    The policy behind this rule is to preclude a litigant's attempt to "judge shop" after forming an opinion that the judge may be unfavorably disposed toward that litigant's cause. In re Marriage of Talty, 252 Ill. App.3d 80 (1993), rev'd rem. on other grounds, 166 Ill.2d 232 (1995). Again, no one disputes that a party cannot seek substitution after the judge has issued a ruling on a substantial issue.
