The judge overseeing a criminal trial is required to be completely impartial. Either party may move that the judge recuse him- or herself on the grounds of prejudice or conflict.
The party just has to state that he believes the judge is prejudiced against him and the party does not believe he can have a fair and impartial trial.
Personal bias or prejudice concerning a party or the lawyer of that party is a docHub ground for recusal in the United States. The Due Process clauses of the United States Constitution explicitly require judges to recuse themselves from cases where there is a strong possibility the decision would be biased.
