Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the instructing judge had to be recused for lack of impartiality
Extrahierter Entscheid
No. Rejecting legal aid or managing the file did not, on these facts, create an appearance of bias.
Extrahierte Begründung
A judge is not biased merely because he refused legal aid for lack of success. Here, the instructing judge did not rule on success prospects but only on provisional legal aid and procedural steps, which did not show prejudice.
