The following excerpt is from Daye v. Attorney General of State of N. Y., 663 F.2d 1155 (2nd Cir. 1981):
Nor, on this record, can we give any weight to the judge's several instructions to the jury to draw no conclusions about the court's opinion from the questions put by the court. Such instructions do not cure the overwhelming impression of bias conveyed by the judge's continuous questioning. See Querica v. United States, 289 U.S. 466, 472, 53 S.Ct. 698, 700, 77 L.Ed.2d 1321 (1933).
