Just found this at NWCN.com under "Recount FAQ"

"How many recounts are there going to be?"

"State law allows for only two recounts and the candidates must live with the result. State law does not, however, bar additional vote counts if one candidate or party contests the election and a judge orders another count."

Kinda goes against what we've been hearing about absolutely only two recounts.

Yes, in theory a judge could order another count. Also in theory, a judge could order the candidates to wear propellor beanies and sing "Oh, Susannah" while hopping on one foot. Both orders, however, would be completely extralegal.
