Agreed, but non-self reported ethics violations aren't often caught until after the decisions are made. It'd be quite tedious to background check every aspect of cases to make sure the judges and legal representatives have no potential conflicts. It is upon the individuals to do such a thing, but as in this case, that duty seems to be occasionally overlooked, whether nefarious or not.
