Question juridique clé
Whether the administrative law appeal against the departmental refusal of legal aid and cost advance was admissible.
Solution extraite
The appeal was not admissible because the challenged order was an interlocutory decision in a matter that itself was not open to administrative law appeal.
Motifs extraits
Under the unity-of-proceedings principle, appeals against interlocutory or procedural-cost decisions are barred when the main matter is not appealable. A canton-allocation decision in the asylum context is only separately challengeable in the exceptional family-unity situation; otherwise the departmental decision is final only within the asylum proceedings and not subject to administrative law appeal.
