Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the husband met the conditions for legal aid and appointed counsel in full or only partially.
Extrahierter Entscheid
The husband was entitled only to partial legal aid because he could cover a significant part of the expected costs within one to two years from his surplus income.
Extrahierte Begründung
Legal aid may be limited when the applicant can, despite indigence, pay a meaningful share of the expected court and own counsel costs within a reasonable time. Here, the monthly surplus of CHF 118 would allow payment of CHF 1,416 to CHF 2,832 over one to two years, exceeding roughly 20% of the anticipated costs. Given the expected complexity of the divorce, full exemption was not justified, but partial legal aid with installment payments was proportionate.
