Key legal question
Whether the appeal against item 3 of the guardianship commission's order was hopeless and therefore legal aid could be refused
Extracted holding
The appeal was hopeless because item 3 was not itself a reviewable disposition; alternatively, if read as a preliminary decision on visitation, it was not separately appealable.
Extracted reasoning
Item 3 merely instructed the guardian to draft a visitation arrangement for later approval. It did not itself create rights or duties. Even under an alternative reading, it would only be an interlocutory decision without independent appealability and no substantiated irreparable harm was shown.
