Key legal question
Whether the appeal was filed within the statutory time limit under the Federal Supreme Court Act.
Extracted holding
No. The appeal period began on 18 May 2011 and expired on 16 June 2011; filing on 17 June 2011 was late.
Extracted reasoning
The appealed judgment was delivered on 17 May 2011. Under Art. 100(1) LTF the appeal had to be filed within 30 days, and under Art. 44(1) LTF the period starts the day after notification. Postal dispatch on 17 June could not cure the lateness.
