Recusal in appellate tribunal cases requires disclosure-sensitive impartiality where personal, prior-role, or appearance-based conflicts exist. Maintaining the integrity and high standards of the Appellate Tribunal requires the President or a Member to recuse himself in any case involving a person with whom he has or had a personal, familial or professional relationship. Recusal is also required where the matter concerns a case on which he previously acted in another capacity, including as advisor, representative, expert or witness, or where any other circumstance makes his participation appear inappropriate. A recusing President or Member may record reasons for recusal, but no party or other person has a right to know those reasons.
