What is Bennett v State: Recusal Case Analysis about?

In the case of Bennett and Another v The State, the accused sought the recusal of the presiding judge amidst a complex trial involving over 3000 counts of white-collar crimes. The court dismissed the recusal application, noting an increasing trend of such applications being used as tactical devices rather than for legitimate concerns of fairness. The judgment emphasized that recusal should be reserved for genuine instances aimed at ensuring a fair trial, rather than as a routine strategy by litigants.
