It's reasonably clear from context that you meant 2544 rather than
2573, and a close examination of the rules indicates that judges
remain assigned post-judgement (they used to work that way, and
still do; in particular, R911 does not explicitly reassign the
prior judge, merely reopens the prior question).  So yes, I think
this pre-emptive recusal is effective, and boosts 2544's II to 2
[R2225(2)], but does not affect the validity of 2544a's current
panel [R1868(4)].
