Facts The applicant sought legal aid for an intended action against the defendant, a travel company. Among other things, she sought compensation under the Montreal Convention (MC) for an injury she had allegedly suffered during an international flight from Munich to Denpasar, Indonesia via Singapore. She claimed that a flight attendant had injured her knee during the flight with a service cart. The Hanover Regional Court rejected the application for legal aid. It found that a claim for damages under Article 17 of the MC did not exist because this would require the damage to result from a typical aviation hazard.
