Questão jurídica principal
Whether the refusal of appellate legal aid was justified because the appeal lacked prospects of success.
Decisão extraída
Yes. The appeal was properly assessed as having no meaningful chance of success, so legal aid could be refused.
Fundamentação extraída
The alleged tacit lease with the defendants was implausible; at most a sublease existed, which did not bind the owners. The evidentiary complaint also lacked specificity and did not warrant broader witness-taking rights.
