The proceeding didn’t last long as Judge Dianna Bull disqualified herself from the case due to the fact that she herself is a parent of a Schoolhouse child. Chief Judge Patrick Murphy is scheduled to appoint a new judge for the case.   

Rodriguez and Lovato each face misdemeanor charges of failure to report child abuse and knowingly placing a child in a situation that poses a threat of injury.
