From Chapter: Economic Substantive Due Process

What did the Supreme Court hold in Capterton v. A.T. Massey Coal Co. Inc. (2009)?
The Court held that the Due Process clause of the Fourteenth Amendment requires a judge to recuse himself not only when actual bias has been demonstrated or when the judge has an economic interest in the outcome of the case, but also when "extreme facts" create a "probability of bias."
