Key legal question
Whether the cassation appeal was filed within the statutory deadline
Extracted holding
The appeal was filed too late because the deadline began after unsuccessful service and expired before the postal filing date.
Extracted reasoning
After unsuccessful postal delivery, the decision is deemed served seven days later; the 30-day deadline then expired on 2006-05-22, while the appeal was only delivered to the post on 2006-05-24. The appellant's medical impediment did not justify restitution because he still had sufficient time to act through counsel and did not request restitution within the statutory period.
