Key legal question
Whether the public-law appeal against the refusal of legal aid was admissible despite being directed against an interim decision.
Extracted holding
The appeal was admissible because the refusal of legal aid was an interim decision capable of causing irreparable harm, and the underlying state-liability claim brought the case within public-law appeal jurisdiction.
Extracted reasoning
The Court held that the challenged decision was interlocutory; the same remedy path applies as for the main matter. Given the amount claimed, the public-law appeal was available.
