Key legal question
Whether the refusal of unentgeltliche Rechtspflege for the ordered mediation was unlawful because the appellant lacked sufficient means.
Extracted holding
The appellant did not sufficiently show neediness; the income exceeded the calculated minimum subsistence level, and the authority's calculation was upheld.
Extracted reasoning
The court accepted the KESB's detailed budget assessment, found several claimed expenses unproven or already included in the basic amount, and noted that legal aid is also denied when costs can be paid in instalments within a year.
