            Appellant
Carole Marasovic seeks review of a summary judgment entered in favor of
respondents in an action arising out of the death of appellant's mother at
Shields-Richmond, a nursing home. 
Respondents are Alta Bates Medical
Center
(Alta Bates), the hospital where appellant's mother was treated
shortly before her death, and Linda Bradford, a social worker at Alta Bates.



            Appellant
contends that the judge who granted respondents' summary judgment motion was
biased against her; that the trial court erred in declining to consider the
expert declaration she submitted in opposition to the href="http://www.fearnotlaw.com/">summary judgment motion, and in refusing
to allow her to substitute the belatedly filed declaration of another expert;
that the court should have found a triable issue of material fact, either based
on the other evidence she submitted or on a negligence
per se theory
; and that the court should not have sustained respondents'
demurrer to her causes of action for intentional
infliction of emotional distress and elder abuse
.  We reject all of these contentions, and affirm the judgment. style='mso-footnote-id:ftn1' href="#_ftn1" name="_ftnref1" title=""> class=MsoFootnoteReference>[1]
