NYS 6th Judicial District, from the horse's own mouth - Chief Judge Eugene Faughnan refuses to remove from the case a presiding judge who is a defendant in the case

This is the NYSCEF page of a court case, of today.

The Assigned Judge is Christopher P. Baker.

 This is the Amended Complaint dated three (3) days earlier.

The judge is a named defendant in the case.

This is the e-mail of today of the Chief Administrative Judge of the 6th Judicial District Eugene Faughnan, refusing to remove Judge Baker off the case due to his legal disqualification and insultingly advising me to hire an attorney because it is "a legal issue".

And isn't assignment of judges to cases where they are named defendants a standing policy of your office, Judge Faughnan?

So - the policy of 6th Judicial District that it is up to the judge to step down or not to step down from presiding over a case where the judge is a NAMED DEFENDANT.

It DID surely become a legal issue, only for Judge Faughnan - as this "assignment policy" of assigning judges to cases where they are defendants (and not only in my cases) appears to be a standing, documented, unconstitutional policy of his office.

Notably, Judge Baker is not stepping down...  Interesting - isn't it?

Judge Faughnan can't claim he did not read it - I sent the link to this article to him, so he is on notice.
