Question juridique clé
Whether the president of the cantonal appellate panel had to recuse himself because he had previously participated in a justice commission decision in the same matter.
Solution extraite
No further federal review was available for that recusal decision, and the renewed request before the appellate court could be disregarded because no new grounds were shown.
Motifs extraits
The justice commission had already decided the recusal request, and the defendant did not appeal that decision in time. The Federal Supreme Court therefore lacked competence to review it in this proceeding.
