Supreme Court dismisses appeal regarding a judge's recusal due to being a bank branch manager.

The Supreme Court dismissed the appeal challenging the recusal of a judge who was also the supervisor of the defendant bank's branch. The applicant argued the judge's dual role created an appearance of bias, while the court found no actual conflict of interest. The decision rests on the principle that holding a supervisory position in a bank does not automatically disqualify a judge from hearing cases involving that bank.
