Whether the complainant was entitled to free legal aid and appointment of counsel under Art. 136 CCP
No. The case was not legally or factually complex, and the complainant had sufficient procedural experience to assert her civil claims without counsel.
Legal aid for a complainant requires indigence, non-frivolous civil claims, and, for counsel, objective or subjective necessity. Here the alleged episode was limited to a single, precisely described phone call and the complainant could prove it by witness evidence; no special difficulty justified counsel.
