Questão jurídica principal
Whether the appellant was indigent for cantonal legal aid purposes despite living in concubinage.
Decisão extraída
For a childless concubinage, the partner's income cannot automatically be treated like a spouse's income; on the facts, indigence was established.
Fundamentação extraída
No legal maintenance duty exists between concubines. The cantonal court wrongly assimilated the couple to a married couple and included the concubine's income. The appellant had no income or assets to be considered.
