Key legal question
Whether the appeal was filed within the 10-day time limit under the BGG
Extracted holding
No. The deadline began on 11 May 2010, expired on 20 May 2010, and the appeal posted on 21 May 2010 was late.
Extracted reasoning
Under Art. 100 Abs. 2 lit. c BGG the period is 10 days; under Art. 44 Abs. 1 BGG it starts the day after service. The appellant's own submissions showed service on 10 May 2010 and mailing only on 21 May 2010.
