Kernrechtsfrage
Whether appointed counsel under free legal aid may be withdrawn with retroactive effect.
Extrahierter Entscheid
No. Withdrawal of appointed counsel may only take effect ex nunc, not retroactively from the start of the proceedings.
Extrahierte Begründung
A retroactive withdrawal would unfairly deprive appointed counsel of the statutory guarantee of adequate compensation and could also prejudice the opposing party's statutory entitlement to state-paid costs. The state can protect its interests by pursuing reimbursement under § 114 ZPO.
