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.

A cover sheet, or cover letter when dealing with correspondence, is simply the letter to the judge that goes with some form of pleading in a court case (such as a notice of motion, affidavit or brief) that tells the judge what is being sent to him/her. It will itemize the items sent so that the judge knows that the pleadings being sent to him are all of the items that were intended to be sent.
Usually, the case will be sent to another venue so that the judge charged is not tried by another judge he/she has worked closely with.

The judge is responsible for the orderly conduct of the trial, making rulings on motions and objections to procedures before, during and after trial, charging the jury on the law that applies to the case, and entering a judgment based on the jury verdict. Sometimes the judge also decides the case all on his or her own if there is no jury (a situation known as a bench trial). In appellate matters, the judge is responsible to review the record of the trial on appeal and make determinations whether there were any errors at trial that would render a verdict/judgment incorrect. The judge either affirms, reverses or reverses and remands the matter to the trial court for rehearing consistent with the appellate court's ruling.
He files a motion for an order to have the Judge recuse himself from the case.
