The Supreme Court dismissed the defense attorney's request to recuse Judge Ewa Stefańska from the proceedings regarding the liability of Judge X. Y. The defense argued that Stefańska had previously participated in a related case (I ZB 36/23), raising potential bias concerns. The court ruled that the prior involvement did not constitute a valid ground for recusal under the relevant procedural law.
