回答: "CONFLICT OF INTEREST" is usually not used for judges being recused 由 HunHunSheng 于 2005-10-25, 14:54:27:

is requested to recuse from a case

" WASHINGTON (CNN) -- U.S. Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia refused Thursday to recuse himself from an upcoming case involving Vice President Dick Cheney, with whom he recently hunted and dined.

"I do not believe my impartiality can reasonably be questioned," Scalia said in a 21-page memorandum, rejecting suggestions of an appearance of a conflict of interest."

"The most blatant conflict of interest, however, involves Supreme Court Justices Antonin Scalia and Clarence Thomas. Conflicts of interest occur when a public official’s personal interests are at odds with his or her obligations as a public official. One of the more typical situations is when a public official is in position to do favors for a relative."
