Text

The defendant in any proceeding for contempt
of court may file with the court a demand for the retirement of the
judge sitting in the proceeding, if the contempt arises from an attack
upon the character or conduct of such judge and if the attack occurred
elsewhere than in the presence of the court or so near thereto as to
interfere directly with the administration of justice. Upon the filing of
any such demand the judge shall thereupon proceed no further, but
another judge shall be designated in the same manner as is provided by
law. The demand shall be filed prior to the hearing in the contempt
proceeding.
Formerly: Acts 1933, c.12, s.12.
