Key legal question
Whether the refusal of legal aid for the appeal was lawful despite the appellant's claim of indigence.
Extracted holding
The refusal was lawful because the appellant did not adequately substantiate his financial situation and violated his duty to cooperate, particularly regarding foreign real estate and possible sale proceeds.
Extracted reasoning
Under Arts. 117 and 119 ZPO, the applicant must fully disclose income and assets. In appeal proceedings a new application is required, and the applicant had ample reason to provide detailed evidence again, especially after earlier refusals and the lapse of temporary aid.
