You are viewing the 9th edition (2019) of this publication; for the 10th edition (2022) see here

Whether a case can be remitted to a differently composed department of first instance when the original first-instance decision proves to have been vitiated by a substantial procedural violation is dealt with in detail, in the context of suspected partiality of members of the departments of first instance, in chapter III.J.4.2. "Remittal and rehearing of a case".
