The Supreme Court excluded one judge from the appeal court to handle the case due to a potential conflict of interest, while dismissing the remainder of the plaintiff's request. The plaintiff, Z. G., sought to disqualify judges R. K. and others from the appeal court in a dispute over the enforceability of a title. The court found sufficient grounds to remove only the specific judge implicated by the conflict, leaving the other judges to proceed with the trial.
