Key legal question
Whether the appeal against the cantonal interim decision was admissible under Art. 93 BGG because it caused irreparable harm.
Extracted holding
The exclusion of counsel from the assessment could be fully remedied by appealing the later final decision; no irreparable legal harm was shown.
Extracted reasoning
Art. 93 Abs. 1 lit. b BGG did not apply because no final decision on benefits would result. Under Art. 93 Abs. 1 lit. a BGG, the appellant could raise the objection later against the final decision and invoke Art. 37 Abs. 1 ATSG; the alleged disadvantages were not irreparable.
