Key legal question
Whether the debt-release action appeared to have sufficient chances of success for legal aid under Art. 29(3) Cst.
Extracted holding
No. The proposed action was assessed as lacking reasonable prospects because the asserted vitiating grounds were speculative and unsupported by sufficient allegations or proof.
Extracted reasoning
Essential mistake could not be based on merely hoped-for future events such as restructuring, delayed bankruptcy, or delayed enforcement of the pledge; fraud was likewise not substantiated by concrete pleaded facts or proof; the remaining arguments had no legal basis.
