Question juridique clé
Whether the federal criminal appeal was filed within the 30-day statutory deadline
Solution extraite
No. The appeal period started the day after notification on 17 May 2011 and expired on 16 June 2011; the filing on 17 June 2011 was late.
Motifs extraits
Under Arts. 100(1), 48(1) and 44(1) LTF, the decisive date is the handover to the postal service. Track & Trace confirmed receipt of the decision on 17 May 2011, so the filing on 17 June 2011 was out of time.
