Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the cantonal court violated the right to be heard by ignoring the appellant's reliance on a court clerk's telephone information when assessing the prospects of the appeal for legal aid.
Extrahierter Entscheid
Yes. The court had to address the asserted court information because it was potentially decisive for the assessment of the appeal's chances.
Extrahierte Begründung
The appellate court failed to engage with a material submission contained in the file. By not examining the alleged statement that a new deadline would be set if the earlier legal-aid appeal failed, it omitted a relevant argument and thereby breached Art. 29(2) BV.
