Key legal question
Whether refusing to obtain the file from C.'s case was arbitrary under Art. 9 BV.
Extracted holding
The refusal was not arbitrary because the appellate court was not bound by C.'s summary punishment order and could assess C.'s conduct independently.
Extracted reasoning
No obvious arbitrariness existed in the view that the appellate court could evaluate C.'s conduct itself; the complainant did not show that the court relied on C.'s file. Any hearing-right issue was therefore not established.
