Leber et al v. Bryan Medical Center et al

IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE DISTRICT OF NEBRASKA
MATTHEW L. LEBER, individually,
Plaintiff,
vs.
BRYAN MEDICAL CENTER, et al.,
Defendants.
8:25-CV-401
ORDER
This matter is before the Court on the Court's own motion pursuant to
28 U.S.C. §§ 455(a) & (b), which set forth the circumstances in which a judge
of the United States shall disqualify himself from a proceeding.
I very recently received emergency medical treatment from Bryan
Medical Center, and will require substantial follow-up treatment for some
time. It would be inappropriate for me to continue presiding over claims
against the defendants at the same time I am now depending on them for
necessary medical care. Accordingly, this case could implicate the
circumstances described in § 455(a), requiring my recusal.
IT IS ORDERED that I recuse myself from this case and that the
Clerk shall refer this matter to the Chief Judge for reassignment.
Dated this 28th day of October, 2025.
BY THE COURT:
John M. Gerrard
Senior United States District Judge
