Supreme Court allows state aid payment when legal aid covers insurance deductible, not full liability. State aid rules apply to deductible portion of insurance liability.
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court allowed the claim for state aid regarding the payment of legal aid fees. The applicant argued that since legal aid covered the insurance deductible, the state should pay the full fee, but the opposing party contended that state aid rules only cover the portion of liability not borne by the insurance deductible. The court decided that state aid regulations apply specifically to the part of the liability excluded from insurance coverage, meaning the fee for the deductible portion is not eligible for state aid.
