Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the refusal to enter into the social assistance application because of alleged lack of cooperation was lawful.
Decisione estratta
The refusal was unlawful because the available facts did not support a finding that the applicant had failed to cooperate to a degree justifying denial of assistance.
Motivazione estratta
The evidence indicated that the applicant had likely ceased self-employment by early 2012; the supposed contrary indications were old and insufficient. The cantonal court assessed the evidence arbitrarily by treating incomplete business documentation as proof against present need without adequate positive indications of income.
