SANFORD --
Kenneth Lester, the judge handling George Zimmerman's second-degree murder case, will not recuse himself.

Zimmerman's attorneys filed a motion asking Lester to remove himself, claiming the judge was biased against Zimmerman.

But in a ruling released today, Lester said he found the allegations in the motion filed by the attorneys to be "legally insufficient."

George Zimmerman is on trial for the death of Trayvon Martin back in February.

Zimmerman's attorneys filed the motion to have Lester removed earlier this month. The motion stems from Lester's decision to revoke Zimmerman's $150,000 bond after it was revealed that he had more money from donations than originally disclosed.

Lester later granted Zimmerman a $1 million bond, and in that ruling made several comments about Zimmerman's character, and even hinting at future contempt proceedings.
