Angelina Jolie sought the removal of the private judge in her and Brad Pitt's divorce case because she was "concerned that something untoward was happening".
It was recently revealed that Angelina asked to have Judge John W. Ouderkirk disqualified from the proceedings, because she claims he failed to disclose his business relationships with her ex-husband's attorneys.
According to papers filed by Angelina's counsel, her lawyer Samantha Bley DeJean discovered that the judge had an "ongoing professional and financial relationship" with Pitt's attorneys Anne C. Kiley and Lance Spiegel.
A source told the New York Post's Page Six that: "Angelina isn't trying to delay this process. In fact, the court papers state that she wants to get this issue with the judge resolved so there are no further delays [in deciding custody and financial issues like child support]."
