Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court dismissed the application to recall a previous order, emphasizing that a second application for the same relief is not maintainable after a prior dismissal. The court rejected the applicant's request for recusal of a judge, stating that dissatisfaction with a prior ruling does not constitute a valid reason for recusal. The decision reinforces the principle that litigants cannot manipulate court composition based on previous outcomes.
