Would it be possible to find any judge who can try this case, since the set of people affected by the breach is basically everyone?
- ztjio 9y agoYeah that actually makes it irrelevant. The concern of people being impacted is about biases. If everyone is impacted the bias is no different than the base concept of peer justice in the first place.
- KGIII 9y agoI am not a lawyer, but I have taken a bunch of law classes. IIRC, the judge doesn't need to recuse themselves of any/all cases where they are impacted, only that they must recuse themselves where they would be unable to be unbiased, or where there would be an appearance of being unbiased. In the lower courts, when in doubt, that's decided by other judges. At the SCOTUS level, that's decided by the individual judge on an individual level. So, yes... They will find a judge.
