Key legal question
Whether appointed counsel fees may bear interest from the date of judgment.
Extracted holding
No interest may be added to appointed counsel compensation; interest can arise only if the State is in default.
Extracted reasoning
The counsel cannot claim interest even against the client, so there is no basis for a stronger claim against the State. The fee claim arises only upon final judicial award, or upon proof that the party costs are uncollectible; interest follows only from default under Art. 102 ff. OR.
