Roberta J. W. appeals from orders terminating her parental rights to her children, Exsavon and Dorraj, and from the order denying her motion for posttermination relief. Roberta argues that she was denied her due process right to a neutral and impartial magistrate because, during Roberta’s trial, the judge actively involved himself in the questioning of witnesses and the flow of evidence. After review of the record and trial transcripts, we agree with Roberta and remand this case for a new trial. This opinion will not be published.
