MEMORANDUM AND ORDER
JOHN A. ROSS, District Judge.
This matter is before the Court on Movant Kyle Maurice Parks's "Motion to Request Recusal." (Doc. 100.) Movant alleges bias on the part of the undersigned. (Id.)
District Judges should recuse themselves in cases where their impartiality might reasonably be questioned. 28 U.S.C. § 455(a). Movant asserts that bias can be inferred from this Court's past rulings and the number of the pending motions yet to be ruled on.
The Court has reviewed Movant's assertions and finds that there is no basis for recusal. Judges have an obligation not to recuse themselves when there is no basis for doing so. The Court will continue to consider and rule on Movant's motions in its ordinary course.
Accordingly,
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Movant Kyle Maurice Parks's "Motion to Request Recusal" (Doc. 100), is DENIED.
