Book excerpt: Professional Code of Ethics: Canon 3E/Rule 2.11(A) -Disqualification may be required if a judge's impartiality might reasonably be questioned if -Presiding over cases involving an attorney with whom the judge had a romantic relationship. There are no accidents. People cross paths for a reason. I'm not sure why ours crossed but within a second, I realized, she could destroy everything. There's a code of ethics in some professions where certain relationships are frowned upon. She's the prosecutor. I'm the judge. Sleeping with her is all sorts of hell no! Ethic review boards could remove me from the bench-as in "You're fired." Even worse, my father would kill me if his name were tainted. But it would kill me more not to have her. They say rules are meant to be broken. But is she worth the risk? The only thing I was sure of-I wanted to completely overrule her perfect little world.
