Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the refusal to appoint an out-of-canton lawyer as free counsel violated federal law or constitutional rights
Extrahierter Entscheid
The refusal was lawful; the canton could reserve appointed mandates to lawyers registered in its own register.
Extrahierte Begründung
The proceeding was not shown to require special circumstances for free choice of counsel, and the cantonal rule had objective reasons: duty to accept official mandates and supervisory/disciplinal interests. BGFA and the freedom of commerce did not grant a right to out-of-canton official mandates.
