With no intention of sounding cynical, they are all biased in some ways, just for being people. It is hoped that to the best of their ability, they set aside their biases. It is also hoped that their biases are "normal", as opposed to some kind of hateful racial bias.

You have some things you can do. Your best bet is to not have anything to do with the judge, which means that you should break no laws and not be in any kind of legal conflict with anyone.

If that's not possible, then you could always appeal his decision, though that can only be on certain grounds.

Ultimately, you could move.

If you believe your county judge is biased, you can request a recusal, which means asking them to step down from the case due to a perceived conflict of interest or bias. You can also appeal the judge's decision if you believe it was made unfairly due to bias. It's important to gather evidence of bias and consult with a legal professional for guidance on how to proceed.

The Commissioner's Court is made up of Commissioners elected from within different precincts of a county. The County Judge is the chief executive officer of a county.
