Questão jurídica principal
Whether the lawyer had standing to appeal the cantonal party-cost award
Decisão extraída
The lawyer lacked standing because the award did not concern a personal claim to compensation as unentgeltlicher Rechtsbeistand.
Fundamentação extraída
Standing under Art. 89 BGG exists only if the challenged decision affects the lawyer personally. Here the cantonal judgment clarified that the awarded party compensation also covered the earlier case, but no separate entitlement of the lawyer remained after the prior Federal Court remittal and the later success of the claim.
