Key legal question
Whether the civil appeal against the cantonal legal-aid decision was admissible
Extracted holding
The appeal in civil matters was admissible because the challenged interlocutory decision could cause irreparable harm and the dispute concerned a private-law monetary claim above the statutory threshold.
Extracted reasoning
The Court held that interlocutory legal-aid decisions are generally appealable under Art. 93(1)(a) BGG, and the main action was a contractual monetary claim exceeding CHF 30,000.
