1. A magistrate shall not accept any compensation, fee, or reward from or on behalf of anyone for services rendered in the conduct of official business except the compensation provided by law.
2. If a magistrate who practices law appears as counsel for a client in a matter that is within the jurisdiction of a magistrate, that matter shall be heard only by a district judge or a district associate judge. A disqualification under this section shall be had upon motion of the magistrate or of any party, either orally or in writing, and the clerk of the district court shall reassign the matter to a proper judicial officer.
