Landsretten stadfæster byrettens beslutning, således at der ikke beskikkes advokat for klager

[DOKUMENT] Retsbog med kendelse (2 sider) UDSKRIFT AF ØSTRE LANDSRETS DOMBOG ____________ KENDELSE

Afsagt den 30. juli 2008 af Østre Landsrets 12. afdeling (landsdommerne Black, M. Levy og Ulla Langholz)

12. afd. kære nr. S-2137-08: Anklagemyndigheden mod Klager (CPR nr. (født 1971)) (Advokat 1)

Klager har kæret Københavns Byrets kendelse af 17. juni 2008 (98-12336/2008), hvorefter beskikkelse af advokat er nægtet.

Advokat 1 har indgivet kæreskrift af 30. juni 2008, hvoraf fremgår blandt andet:

”… Min klient har oplyst, at han umiddelbart efter overgrebet blev tilset af en læge. Da der er klaget over hårdhændet behandling samt uberettiget brug af håndjern, er betingelserne for beskikkelse efter min opfattelse til stede jævnfør praksis, … ”.

Byretten har ved sagens fremsendelse henholdt sig til afgørelsen.

Det fremgår af sagens oplysninger, at Klager blev anholdt som efterlyst til afsoning.

Herefter og henset til de iøvrigt foreliggende oplysninger i sagen, tiltræder landsretten, at byretten ikke har fundet tilstrækkeligt grundlag for beskikkelse af advokat,jf. retsplejelov-ens § 1019e.

Thibestemmes:

Byrettens kendelse stadfæstes.
