Question juridique clé
Whether the complaint against refusal of free legal aid was admissible as an appeal in civil matters.
Solution extraite
The complaint was admissible because the challenged refusal of legal aid was an interim decision causing irreparable harm, and the main proceedings concerned a non-pecuniary family matter.
Motifs extraits
A refusal of legal aid is an interlocutory decision under Art. 93(1)(a) BGG. The underlying divorce-modification proceedings were treated as non-pecuniary, so the civil-law appeal route was available.
