Before FLETCHER and CORTIÑAS, JJ., and SCHWARTZ, Senior Judge.


Rehearing and Rehearing En Banc Denied December 7, 2006.

CORTIÑAS, Judge.

Petitioners seek a writ of prohibition or, alternatively, a writ of mandamus based on the trial judge's refusal to disqualify the Special Master, finding Petitioners' claims legally insufficient. Because we find that the Special Master's conduct does not reach the high threshold necessary for disqualification, we deny the petitions.
