Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the refusal of cantonal free legal aid violated the right to be heard and the constitutional right to legal aid
Extrahierter Entscheid
No. The cantonal court could refuse the requested witness hearings in anticipatory assessment, and it was not arbitrary to find that the appellant had not credibly established indigence.
Extrahierte Begründung
The written confirmations were vague, the account documents did not allow the claimed reimbursement scheme to be verified, and the proposed witnesses were unlikely to provide concrete, first-hand clarifications. The appellant had not sufficiently documented his financial situation.
