Young Thug Files Motion To Remove Judge Ural D. Glanville From YSL Rico Case

Young Thug feels he can't have a fair trial until the judge presiding over his case is promptly removed Young Thug's lawyers are calling for the outright disqualification and/or recusal of Judge Ural D. Glanville who's been handling his criminal case in Atlanta. The incarcerated rap star's reasoning is about the same as that of his attorney Brian Steel who was held in contempt recently for questioning whether the judge had possibly engaged in misconduct. Judge Glanville was suggested to have held a secret ex parte meeting with defendant Kenneth "YSL Woody" Copeland but not in the presence of others, which Thug and co. are crying foul over. The judge didn't deny the meeting took place, he simply tried to throw Steel in jail for not revealing how he knew about it in the first place. So on the merits no one has really ruled one way or another and now, YT is forcing the issue with this motion in court. Yong Thug is also pushing for a mistrial which he hasn't had much success in doing thus far. Meanwhile, Steel will remain free while his contempt of court charge is getting appealed.
