The Judicial Inquiry Commission has considered your request for an opinion concerning
whether, under the Alabama Canons of Judicial Ethics, a judge is disqualified from
sitting in proceedings in which a party is represented by (1) the judge’s re-election
campaign treasurer or a member of his firm, or (2) a member of the judge’s re-election
advisory committee or members of their firms; or both parties are represented by one of
the above.
