Question juridique clé
Whether the Vice-President could decide the recusal request although the challenged judge was within the same office.
Solution extraite
The recusal decision could be taken by the challenged judge's office only because the request was considered abusive or manifestly unfounded; that exception was not violated here.
Motifs extraits
A judge whose recusal is sought should normally not sit on the request, but an exception exists for abusive or clearly unfounded mass recusals. The appellant relied only on general collegiality arguments.
