Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the appeal had to be entered into after the signature defect was cured late.
Extrahierter Entscheid
No. The appellant failed to remedy the defect within the time limit and did not request formal restitution of the deadline.
Extrahierte Begründung
Under Art. 42 LTF, an unsigned brief must be corrected within the time granted, failing which it is not considered. The late filing due to an associate's vacation did not justify restitution under Art. 50 LTF.
