Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the appeal against the refusal of legal aid was admissible and whether the request for free legal representation in the federal proceedings had to be examined.
Decisione estratta
The appeal was admissible against the interlocutory order; the request for free legal representation before the federal court was unnecessary insofar as partial success entitled the appellant to a reduced party costs award.
Motivazione estratta
A refusal of legal aid can cause irreparable harm and is separately appealable. The appeal request concerning free legal representation at first cantonal instance lacked a proper object, so no review was possible there.
