Key legal question
Whether the cantonal refusal of free legal representation should be overturned because the appellant was indigent.
Extracted holding
The appellant did not show that the cantonal court's finding of no indigence was manifestly incorrect or incomplete; the refusal stands.
Extracted reasoning
The Federal Supreme Court was bound by the cantonal factual findings. The calculated income exceeded the extended minimum subsistence level, and the appellant's reference to supplementary benefits did not exclude the absence of indigence.
