HAR §15-106-23. Disqualification of authority members

Any person, up to five calendar days before the proceeding, may file an affidavit that one or more of the members of the authority has a personal bias or prejudice with respect to the proceeding. The affidavit shall state the facts and reasons for the belief that personal bias or prejudice exists. A member against whom the affidavit is filed may answer the affidavit, in which case the remaining members shall decide whether that member should be disqualified from the proceeding. If a member chooses to be disqualified, the member shall file with the chairperson a certificate requesting disqualification stating that the member has a conflict of interest with respect to the outcome of the proceeding or is unable to decide with impartiality.
