Court: TN Court of Appeals

Attorneys 1: Roxana Bianca Jordan, Kingston, Tennessee, Pro Se.

Attorneys 2: Joe R. Judkins, Aaron D. Duffey, Oak Ridge, Tennessee, for the appellee, Thomas Kerry Jordan.

Judge(s): CLEMENT

This is an accelerated interlocutory appeal as of right pursuant to Tennessee Supreme Court Rule 10B § 2.02 from the trial court’s denial of a motion for recusal. We have determined that the petition must be summarily dismissed because the petition for recusal appeal was untimely and the time for filing a petition for recusal appeal is jurisdictional and cannot be extended by this court. See Tenn. Sup. Ct. R. 10B, § 2.08. We also find that the petition would have to be dismissed due to numerous and substantive failures to comply with Rule 10B § 2.02, including the failure to file a copy of the affidavit in support of the motion for recusal as well as the trial court’s order denying recusal. Accordingly, the appeal is dismissed.
