Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the refusal of appointed counsel/legal aid in the cantonal appeal proceedings was immediately challengeable before the Federal Supreme Court.
Extrahierter Entscheid
The challenge was inadmissible because the refusal, issued together with the merits decision, did not cause an irreparable disadvantage under Art. 93(1)(a) BGG.
Extrahierte Begründung
The legal-aid refusal had no effect on the course of the cantonal proceedings; if no merits judgment is later obtainable, a direct public-law appeal can still be filed after the administrative decision. Therefore, no irreparable harm exists.
