Question juridique clé
Whether free legal aid is available in debt enforcement proceedings under federal law or Solothurn civil procedure law.
Solution extraite
There is no entitlement to free legal aid in debt enforcement proceedings unless the law expressly provides for it; Solothurn's civil procedure code did not contain such a rule.
Motifs extraits
The court held that the grant of legal aid in debt enforcement proceedings cannot simply be derived from general legal-aid provisions in civil procedure. Such a right would have to be regulated separately and expressly, which was not the case either under federal law or under the cantonal code.
