Resumo Omnilex

In a recusal matter in case AC 94/029, the Vaud Administrative Court noted that Judge Eric Brandt had already self-recused and that counsel for Janine and Pierre Schmit waived the recusal of assessors Paul Blondel and Pierre Richard. The plenary court therefore removed the matter from the docket. It also ordered that the decision be rendered without court costs and granted the applicants CHF 500 in party compensation payable by the court treasury.

Sumário Omnilex

Recusal proceedings; spontaneous disqualification and waiver by the requesting party render the recusal request moot, so that the court may strike the matter from the roll. Where the parties obtain only partial success in such incidental proceedings, the court may deny court costs and award a limited party indemnity (consid. implied by the dispositif).
