The plaintiff-landlord (client of Hall Booth Smith) requested from the Court a release of all funds held in the Registry at around 5:20 PM on December 20, 2022; and the judge entered the order releasing the funds without a hearing at 11:03 AM the very next morning (on December 21) with over $40,000 of those funds still in dispute for a jury to decide ownership of. “I’ve seen my fair share of malfeasance from the bench in many [Georgia] counties so, while this situation isn’t overly surprising, it’s still disheartening and puts me in a bad position having to ask the judge to recuse herself,” McMaster continued. “It would essentially amount to malpractice on my part if I don’t motion to recuse the judge at this point.”
