How do you change a judge from your case?
Yes, you can request a different judge. You have to have valuable reasoning why you want a new judge and you will also need to have the DA accept the change. This all depends on what state that you live in also.
Can a judge rule on a case where the judge was the prosecutor?
Generally, one can either be a judge or a prosecutor. No person is going to hold both of these positions at the same time. Even if it were possible, having someone in both positions is a conflict of interest, and a new judge would be appointed.
What can you say about the judge kill its case?
It is unethical and illegal for a judge to kill a case. Judges are expected to preside over cases impartially and fairly, and any attempt to manipulate the outcome of a case is a violation of judicial ethics and can lead to severe consequences, including removal from the bench. If there are concerns about a judge's behavior in a case, it should be addressed through appropriate legal channels.

How many adjournments are allowed in a civil lawsuit?
I think you mean to say "continuance," instead of "adjourments." A continuance is when a judge cancels and reschedules a trial setting. An adjournment is when a judge takes a break during an ongoing hearing or trial. Either way, the judge has complete discretion in continuing a case for another time. Usually, the first two continuances are more easily granted. But after two continuances, the judge really needs to have a good compelling reason. Additionally, a judge is less likely to grant a continuance as the case gets older. Nevertheless, it is the judge's decision and there is no limit to how many times a case can be continued.
What does it mean when a case is sealed?
A case that has been sealed means that the case file may not viewed by the public or the media or any other unauthorized person. Cases are generally sealed by statute or by a judge's order, not by court rule.

Not generally. Only time served may count, but only if the judge hearing the case agrees to permit it.

An adjournment generally means a break in the proceedings, to be picked up at a later time or moved to another venue.
What does an attorney file if a judge is prejudiced to a case?
He files a motion for an order to have the Judge recuse himself from the case.
What if the person was not in front of the judge when dismissed can they be charged again?
It will depend on what the judge says. If the judge dismisses the case "With Prejudice" it means that the case cannot be brought again. If the judge dismisses the case "Without Prejudice" it means that the case can be brought again and the person could be charged again.
What is a bench trial?
A "bench trial" is a case heard by a judge without a jury. In a jury case, the jury decides the facts of the case -- what is true and not true -- and the judge decides the law. In a bench trial, the judge determines the facts and the law.

Your question is too broad. Generally a judge determines custody based on the facts in the particular case and the best interest of the child.
