Question juridique clé
Whether the appellant was indigent for purposes of legal aid under Art. 117 ZPO
Solution extraite
No. The court held that the appellant had sufficient assets to cover the likely costs without endangering his basic needs.
Motifs extraits
The cantonal finding of assets of CHF 29,962 was not shown to be arbitrary, and considering a reasonable emergency reserve, those assets still sufficed to pay the expected procedural costs.
