The award is made annually, selected by vote of the Board of Direc- tors of the New Hampshire Bar Foundation. Recipients need not be members of the New Hampshire Bar Association, but are carefully chosen to honor individuals who meet the criteria for the award in its broadest sense. Frank Rowe Kenison (1907-1980) was a member of the New Hampshire Bar Association for 48 years, and served as Chief Justice of the New Hampshire Supreme Court from 1952 to 1977. He was an exquisite legal thinker who committed his life to the legal system, education about the law, and the promise of equal justice for all. PAST KENISON AWARD RECIPIENTS 2019 - Hon. Jeffrey R.

    UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE DISTRICT OF NEW HAMPSHIRE Samuel J. Bourne v. Civil No. 12-cv-251-PB Opinion No. 2012 DNH 158 State of New Hampshire et al.1 O R D E R Before the court is plaintiff's motion for recusal and change of venue. Defendants have objected (Doc. No. 5). Bourne has replied (Doc. No. 7) and filed two supplements to the motion (Doc. Nos. 9 and 17). For the following reasons, the motion for recusal and change of venue (Doc. No. 4) is denied. Discussion I. Recusal A federal statute, 28 U.S.C. § 455, governs the recusal of federal judges and magistrate judges. I must recuse myself if 1 Defendants in this action are: the State of New Hampshire; the New Hampshire Supreme Court (“NHSC”); NHSC Justices Linda Stewart Dalianis, James E. Duggan, Gary E. Hicks, Robert J. Lynn, and Carol Ann Conboy; and NHSC Clerk Eileen Fox. my “impartiality might reasonably be questioned,” id. § 455(a),2 and in close cases, doubts are to be resolved in favor of recusal. See United States v. Snyder, 235 F.3d 42, 46 (1st Cir. 2000). The inquiry is objective, from the perspective of a “reasonable person,” not one who is “‘hypersensitive or unduly suspicious,’” but one who is a “‘well-informed, thoughtful observer,’” who is aware of all of the surrounding facts and circumstances.
