Florida Supreme Court justices have personal ties to abortion, Disney. Should they recuse themselves?

...

Despite their personal ties, Florida’s judicial ethics code doesn’t require those justices to step aside, said Bob Jarvis, a law professor at Nova Southeastern University.

There's literally nothing else to be said about the subject.

Ah yes, I always just defer to existing ethics law instead of discussing whether change is necessary when judges act in ways that are contrary to an interest in justice.
