MEMORANDUM**
Donald Louis Hymes appeals from the district court’s denial of his motion to recuse the original sentencing judge from his re-sentencing hearing after a remand by this court. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm.
Hymes contends that the district court evidenced bias by threatening to increase his sentence, and by failing to lessen his sentence. We disagree. The district court’s comments in its “Order Re Sentence” merely evidence the district court’s assessment of the law after United States v. Booker, 543 U.S. 220, 125 S.Ct. 738, 160 L.Ed.2d 621 (2005). Moreover, the district court’s comments in its “Order Reaffirming Original Sentence” questioning the veracity of Hymes’ remorse do not support a bias challenge. See Liteky v. United States, 510 U.S. 540, 555, 114 S.Ct. 1147, 127 L.Ed.2d 474 (1994); see also United States v. $292,888.04 in U.S. Currency, 54 F.3d 564, 566 (9th Cir.1995) (“[rjecusal is required only if the bias or prejudice stems from an extrajudicial source and not from conduct or rulings made during the course of proceedings”) (citation and internal quotation omitted).
Therefore, the district court did not abuse its discretion in denying Hymes’ motion to recuse. See United States v. Martin, 278 F.3d 988, 1005 (9th Cir.2002).
AFFIRMED.
