Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the recusal request against the cantonal court president was timely.
Decisione estratta
The recusal objection was raised too late because the appellant knew or should have known of the judge's participation earlier and failed to object immediately.
Motivazione estratta
Recusal grounds must be asserted as soon as possible; otherwise, under good faith principles, the right to complain is forfeited. The appellant had been directly addressed by the judge in earlier procedural orders, so he had to expect the judge's participation in the appeal judgment.
