AI generated

The Supreme Court judge Y.Y. was recused from hearing case III CB 50/24 following a request by the opposing party. The conflict arose because the judge had previously requested the exclusion of judge X.Y. from a related civil proceeding (III CSKP 1414/22) involving the same parties. The court ruled that this prior involvement created a sufficient appearance of bias to warrant the recusal.
