Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the appellant could obtain an OHG cost guarantee for her own lawyer's fees in the planned civil action
Extrahierter Entscheid
Yes. Victim assistance may cover lawyer costs for a civil claim when the applicant is needy and the action is not hopeless; the victim need not first exhaust the criminal-adhesion route.
Extrahierte Begründung
Art. 3 OHG also covers legal assistance in a separate civil proceeding. The appellant's financial situation justified aid, and the action was pending shortly, so lack of current necessity could not be used to deny it.
