Washington V. Ladenburg

ALEXANDER, J. -- Robert Leslie Ladenburg, Jr. appeals his juvenile court conviction on a charge of second degree robbery, contending that the trial court erred in denying his motion to disqualify the Pierce County Prosecuting Attorney and the prosecutor's office from handling the prosecution of charges against him. He claims, in addition, that his conviction should be reversed because the Pierce County Prosecutor's office violated the appearance of fairness doctrine by not excusing itself from the prosecution of the case. We affirm.
