Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the recusal request was timely filed
Decisione estratta
The request was filed too late because the grounds were known from the outset and no justification for the delay was shown.
Motivazione estratta
Under Art. 25(1) OJ and the principle of good faith, recusal must be invoked immediately once the ground is known; the applicants knew the composition issue when filing the review request and waited about six weeks, after the court had already decided.
