Cap. 12 чл. 738Decision on grounds of challenge or abstention.

(1) Where the court consists only of one judge and such judge is objected to, he himself shall decide on the alleged ground of challenge, and no appeal shall lie against his decision, and he shall either abstain from sitting and rule that a surrogation of another judge is required, or else proceed with the trial, as the case may be.

(2) Where the court consists of more than one judge, all the judges, including the one objected to, shall decide on the ground of challenge, and where there is any reason to doubt as to whether an alleged ground of abstention is a good ground or otherwise, all the judges, including the judge alleging such ground, shall decide on such ground.
