Generato dall'IAThe Supreme Court dismissed the appeal against a decision by the Court of Appeal. The lower court ordered payment of only approximately one-quarter of the legal aid lawyer's fees without providing any justification. The Court ruled that such an arbitrary reduction violates the principle of reasoned judicial decisions and the right to legal aid.
