Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the refusal to replace the appointed defense counsel was an appealable final or interim decision
Extrahierter Entscheid
The refusal was an interim decision; a constitutional complaint was admissible only if it could cause irreparable legal harm.
Extrahierte Begründung
The criminal cassation procedure did not end; it merely moved the case forward. Under the Court’s practice, denial of a counsel change generally causes no irreparable legal harm because the accused still has counsel, and any defect can later be remedied by challenging the final decision.
