Description
The marriage of Archie and Rebecca Samford was concluded by a divorce in Panola County, Texas. The Samfords have one son, and much of the controversy surrounding the divorce concerned the conservatorship and possession of the child, as well as property issues. Several temporary hearings were conducted before the presiding judge, Honorable Terry Bailey. Judge Bailey knew the parties and the child. Ultimately, Judge Bailey recused from the case without a motion having been filed. The Honorable Paul Banner was assigned to the case and presided over two hearings, including the final divorce hearing. Before the final hearing, the parties and their attorneys conducted a mediation settlement and settled all issues, in writing. The final hearing incorporated the mediated settlement agreement. Rebecca now appeals alleging in one point of error that Judge Bailey erred in "disqualifying/removing himself" from the proceedings and "violated [Rebeccas] right and ability to dispose of her divorce and associated issues in a manner that allowed her to use all of her legal remedies . . . ." Additionally, Rebecca argues that Judge Bailey was disqualified and that all orders/rulings and other related matters are void.
