Questão jurídica principal
Whether the constitutional complaint against the interlocutory refusal of appointed counsel was admissible.
Decisão extraída
The complaint was admissible because the refusal of legal aid in criminal proceedings causes irreparable harm within the meaning of Art. 87 OG, subject to properly reasoned claims.
Fundamentação extraída
Interlocutory decisions denying free legal aid and representation are treated as decisions causing irreparable legal harm; therefore federal review was available.
