United States Third Circuit

District court's judgment holding an attorney in contempt for failing to comply with a subpoena as part of discovery in the motion filed by the attorney, seeking the recusal of the district judge in seven cases in which she appeared as counsel, is remanded as the Magistrate Judge's contempt order was invalid because the procedure by both the Magistrate Judge and District Judge clearly violated the procedural requirements set forth in 28 U.S.C. section 636(e)(6).
