U.S. Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit
Dumitrascu v. Dumitrascu
August 24, 2026
Summary
The Tenth Circuit affirmed the denial of Alin Dumitrascu's motions for judicial recusal and extraordinary post-judgment relief under Rule 60(b)(6). The court held that several arguments were waived because Alin did not preserve them below, and that the district court acted within its discretion in rejecting the recusal and Rule 60(b)(6) requests. The court concluded that the alleged hearing procedures, prior professional relationship between the judge and opposing counsel, asserted legal and factual errors, and alleged misconduct did not justify relief.
