Questão jurídica principal
Whether the interlocutory criminal appeal was admissible despite the interim nature of the defender appointment.
Decisão extraída
Yes. Refusing the accused's chosen official defender could cause an irreparable legal disadvantage that could not be cured later.
Fundamentação extraída
The right to have the wishes of the accused considered when appointing official counsel is protected by Art. 133(2) StPO and Art. 6(3)(c) ECHR; later correction would not fully repair the infringement and would risk delay contrary to the speed requirement.
