Roy Moore wants the federal judge who ruled against him in the $95 million lawsuit he and wife Kayla filed on comedian Sacha Baron Cohen to resign from the case, criticizing the judge for being disrespectful and preparing an order before hearing oral arguments.

Moore also asks that the judge’s ruling – granting a request from Cohen to move the lawsuit from Washington D.C. where Moore filed it to the southern district of New York – be reconsidered.

Moore's attorney, Larry Klayman of Washington, filed the motion on Tuesday.

Moore filed the lawsuit last year after appearing on Cohen’s “Who Is America?” show on Showtime. In the show that often spoofs real-life events or issues, Cohen accused Moore of failing a pedophile test after he was scanned with what Cohen described as new technology to detect an enzyme released by sex offenders.

Moore was accused of having sexual contact of a then-14-year-old girl during the 2017 Senate campaign. Moore has repeatedly denied the accusations.

Attorneys for Moore and Cohen appeared before U.S. District Judge Thomas F. Hogan last month to make oral arguments over Cohen's motion to move the case to New York.

The judge granted Cohen's motion at the end of the hearing.

“To be honest and straightforward, given the manner in which this Court appeared to disrespect and disparage Plaintiff Moore at the outset of the hearing over whether he could still be referred to as Chief Justice of the Alabama Supreme Court – indeed a public figure such as a judge never loses his or her title -- and then at the conclusion of the hearing read from an apparently pre-prepared order that was obviously penned even before the Court heard oral argument, it would appear that the Court not only prejudged Defendants’ motion to transfer, but also harbored extra-judicial bias toward Chief Justice Moore,” the motion from Moore’s attorney said.

The motion also cited several court cases supporting Moore's request.

Vacating Hogan’s order and Hogan’s removal in the case is necessary, the motion said, because the judge erred in interpreting a precedent case cited by Cohen and also " as a matter of due process, if not simple fundamental fairness."
