No, CJC
Canon 2(A) provides in part that judges should act
at all times in a manner that promotes public confidence
in the integrity and impartiality of the judiciary. Permitting
an attorney who practices law with a part-time judge to
appear in a court over which the part-time judge presides
undermines public confidence in the integrity and impartiality
of the judiciary and therefore is not permitted. (Opinion
91-26)
