The court dismissed the plaintiff's request to appoint expert judges with veterinary expertise and the defendant's request for experts in transport and forwarding matters. Both parties argued that specific subject matter knowledge was necessary for a fair trial in their respective cases. The court ruled that the existing judicial structure and available expert witnesses were sufficient, rendering the appointment of specialized expert judges unnecessary.
