Nimmo and Bush

In the matter of *Nimmo and Bush*, heard before Judge Street, the application concerned the recusal of the judge. The dispute arose from an application made by one of the parties seeking the judge's disqualification from hearing the case.

The central legal issue before the court was whether there were grounds for the judge to recuse himself from presiding over the proceedings. This required an examination of the principles governing judicial impartiality and the circumstances under which a judge's apprehension of bias would necessitate their withdrawal.

Judge Street dismissed the application for recusal. The reasoning behind this decision, though not detailed in the provided text, would have involved an assessment of the evidence presented in support of the recusal application against the established legal tests for apprehended bias. The court would have considered whether a reasonable and informed person, having considered the facts, would apprehend that the judge might not bring an impartial mind to the issues before them.

The court ordered that the application for recusal be dismissed.
