Question juridique clé
Whether the defendant was entitled to appointed defence because of alleged mental impairment in the fine-conversion proceedings.
Solution extraite
No. The court held that the cantonal finding that no relevant mental impairment was established was not arbitrary, so no violation was shown.
Motifs extraits
The alleged medical evidence was old and did not prove a current mental condition preventing adequate self-protection. Review of cantonal law was limited, and no arbitrariness was shown.
