Questão jurídica principal
Whether a legal entity may obtain criminal legal aid on the facts shown
Decisão extraída
The company did not prove that its only asset was the seized property or that its economic beneficiaries were indigent; the refusal of legal aid was therefore upheld.
Fundamentação extraída
Legal aid is generally unavailable to legal entities. A narrow exception exists only if the sole asset in dispute and the indigence of the economic beneficiaries are shown, which was not demonstrated.
