Judge recuses himself from Three Cups of Tea suit - Houston Chronicle

Judge recuses himself from Three Cups of Tea suit - Houston Chronicle: MISSOULA, Mont. (AP) — A federal judge has recused himself from presiding over the lawsuit against "Three Cups of Tea" author Greg Mortenson, who is accused of duping millions of people into buying his books and donating to his charity based on lies.

The Missoulian (http://bit.ly/qbOLsg ) reports that U.S. District Judge Donald Molloy recused himself Tuesday because he owns the bestselling book and attended a lecture by Mortenson. The judge also says various family members bought the book and have discussed it with him and with each other.
