Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the appellant was entitled to legal aid for the action to amend the divorce judgment
Decisione estratta
The claim was not hopeless; legal aid and appointed counsel had to be granted in the first-instance and appellate cantonal proceedings.
Motivazione estratta
The legal situation concerning the classification of the payments, their form, and their amendability was difficult and required deeper examination. In such uncertain and debatable questions, hopelessness may not be found at the preliminary legal-aid stage.
