Question juridique clé
Whether the appeal against the cantonal decision denying legal aid was well-founded
Solution extraite
The appeal was manifestly unfounded and could only be dealt with in simplified proceedings.
Motifs extraits
The underlying immigration appeal had no serious prospects of success because the applicant had been divorced, his settlement permit had already been validly revoked, and his criminal conviction for serious drug offences severely weakened any reliance on family life with his son.
