Denial of Request that Judge Recuse Himself Must Be Addressed On Direct Appeal, Not Via an Article 78 Proceeding

The Third Department explained that the denial of a request that a judge recuse himself from presiding over a particular matter could not be addressed via an Article 78 proceeding, but rather could only be addressed on direct appeal:

A CPLR article 78 proceeding is not an appropriate vehicle for seeking review of issues that could be raised upon a direct appeal …, including the denial of a party’s request that a judge recuse himself or herself from presiding over a particular matter … . Rather, petitioners’ remedy — at that point in time — was to either reduce respondent’s bench decision on the recusal motion to a written order, serve a copy of that order and the corresponding notice of entry … and timely file an appeal therefrom … or, alternatively, await decision on the underlying summary judgment motions and, if aggrieved thereby, challenge the denial of their recusal motion upon a direct appeal from that order … . Matter of Concord Assoc LP v LaBuda, 2014 NY Slip Op 07052, 3rd Dept 10-16-14
