Key legal question
Whether two cantonal judges had to recuse themselves after the remand
Extracted holding
No grounds for mandatory recusal were shown; prior participation in the annulled decision did not, by itself, indicate bias.
Extracted reasoning
In a remanded case, a judge may take part in the new decision absent additional indications of prejudice. The alleged remarks were unsubstantiated and, in any event, a view on the legally relevant sentence range does not prove bias.
