Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the refusal of appointed defense was appealable as an interim decision.
Extrahierter Entscheid
Yes, because denial of legal aid can cause irreparable legal harm under Art. 93(1)(a) BGG.
Extrahierte Begründung
The challenged ruling did not end the criminal case but the denial of defense is, by settled case law, an interim decision causing a non-remediable legal disadvantage.
