Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the alleged bias of the appellate judge's clerk required recusal and nullification of prior steps
Decisione estratta
No. The clerk no longer participated in the decision, and earlier measures were not invalid for lack of an existing ground of recusal.
Motivazione estratta
The conversation occurred after the relevant earlier procedural acts; art. 60 StPO applies only to acts after a recusal ground arises.
