The Polish Supreme Court partially dismissed a request by a party to recuse specific judges from an appellate court. The applicant argued that certain judges should be excluded from the case, while the court found no valid grounds for recusal regarding the remaining judges. Consequently, the court ordered the recusal of only a subset of judges while rejecting the request for the others.
