Key legal question
Whether the cantonal refusal of legal aid for the appeal against the AI decision was admissible as an incidental decision
Extracted holding
Yes. The refusal of legal aid can cause irreparable harm, so the federal appeal was admissible.
Extracted reasoning
A refusal of legal aid in cantonal proceedings is an incidental procedural decision under Art. 93 LTF and, because it may irreparably prejudice the litigant, may be challenged immediately.
