Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the refusal of free legal aid violated Art. 29(3) BV by counting rent income from a leased apartment without considering related property expenses.
Decisione estratta
The lower court assessed indigence unconstitutionally by including rental income while excluding the corresponding expenses of the leased property.
Motivazione estratta
Indigence must be assessed from the applicant's overall financial situation. It is impermissible to charge income from rented property without also considering the related costs, because this attributes disposable income that the applicants do not actually have.
