Completely improper, unless your only question is where the courthouse is. It is highly unethical and a violation of the Canons of Judicial Conduct, for your judge friend to talk about the case. His answer to any questions should be be " I'm sorry, I can't discuss your case with you or give you any advice. Speak to your lawyer".
