Key legal question
Whether the recusal appeal was sufficiently reasoned under the Federal Supreme Court Act
Extracted holding
No. The appellant did not address the reasoning of the challenged decision and merely repeated allegations of bias.
Extracted reasoning
A federal appeal must meet the reasoned-appeal requirements of Arts. 42(2) and 106(2) LTF. Because the appellant failed to engage with the cantonal decision’s reasoning or show a violation of constitutional or Convention rights, the appeal was manifestly insufficiently reasoned.
