## How later opinions describe it (automated extraction)

- rejecting the argument that the judge’s scheduling comments demonstrated actual or apparent bias by showing that he considered the defendant guilty before jury deliberation
- explaining that a person’s “demeanor plays a fundamental role” in determining “credibility”
- concluding that a juror had not expressed actual bias
- declining to address appellant’s claims because he “fail[ed] to cite any evidence in the record or legal authority to support” them
