Change of Venue
My ex wife and I used to reside in a small town in Arizona. I have since moved down to the valley but she continues to reside in the small town. Since she has custody of the children the jurisdiction is set in that town. Even when I can provide a good argument in court and it is backed up with the law the judge tends to side with her. Both the judge and my ex wife are of the LDS faith and he presides over her in the church. I believe this has made him bias to her wishes and he is not able to make decisions solely on the facts, creating a conflict of interest. Since it is such a small town he is the only judge that does child custody cases. Would this be a valid reason to appeal his recent ruling and request a change of venue?

Re: Change of Venue
It sounds like it could be a conflict of interest. Do you have an attorney?

Re: Change of Venue
Well generally you can not conflict out once an order has been made. You must file these things beforehand. Check the state / local law on this one.

Re: Change of Venue
Can the ruling not be appealed on the grounds of conflict of interest?
