AI generated

The Supreme Court dismissed the plaintiff's appeal against a lower court's rejection of the appeal due to unpaid fees. The plaintiff argued that a request for a court-appointed lawyer implicitly included a request for fee exemption, citing a Constitutional Court ruling that had not yet taken effect. The court ruled that the statutory right to appointed counsel exists independently of fee waivers, meaning the appeal was properly rejected for non-payment.
