Questão jurídica principal
Whether the refusal of fee waiver for the cantonal appeal violated Art. 29 BV
Decisão extraída
The refusal could stand because the appeal had no sufficient prospects of success; the merits-based ground alone justified denying legal aid.
Fundamentação extraída
Even if the assessment of indigence was debatable, the appeal was objectively hopeless because the cultural-funding rules did not guarantee the practical assistance sought by the complainant.
