Circuit Judge Jessica Recksiedler is on her way out, ready to remove herself from the George Zimmerman second-degree murder case.

STORY: The 411 On The Judge Presiding Over The Trayvon Martin Case

Court officials issued a statement this afternoon, saying Recksiedler is expected to recluse herself on Wednesday.

According to the Orlando Sentinel, on Wednesday Recksiedler is expected to sign an order, surrendering control of the case because of a conflict of interest.

On Monday, Zimmerman’s defense attorney Mark O’Mara filed paperwork asking her to step down. Recksiedler’s husband is a partner of attorney Mark NeJame, who’s under contract with CNN to provide analysis of this case.

She has little option but to grant the motion because of a possible conflict of interest. Several courthouse workers said that’ll happen Wednesday.

The next judge will be one of three people, the remaining felony judges in Seminole County. They are:

John Galluzzo, a long-time Oviedo lawyer who’s represented several murder defendants and been on the bench five years.

Kenneth Lester Jr., the 15-year veteran judge who sentenced Mike Reynolds to the death penalty for beating and stabbing a Geneva couple and their 11-year-old child to death in 1998.

Debra S. Nelson, a 13-year judge who was a civil litigation specialist when she was in private practice.
