Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the federal complaint against the cantonal refusal of free legal counsel was admissible as an appeal against an interim decision.
Extrahierter Entscheid
Yes. The refusal of free legal representation could cause irreparable harm, and the ordinary remedy followed that of the main matter, an involuntary commitment case.
Extrahierte Begründung
The decision was a final cantonal decision on an ancillary procedural question; under the law governing the main matter, a civil law complaint was available, and the challenged ruling qualified as an appealable interim decision.
