Key legal question
Whether the cantonal refusal to appoint a new court-appointed lawyer could be challenged by civil-law appeal.
Extracted holding
The challenge was in principle admissible as an appeal against an incidental decision in a civil matter, but only to the extent that a federal-law violation was properly argued.
Extracted reasoning
The replacement of court-appointed counsel was an incidental decision capable of causing irreparable harm; the underlying divorce dispute was a civil matter and, because non-pecuniary family-law claims were also at stake, the appeal route was opened.
