Question juridique clé
Whether the fee-advance notice was validly served despite the appellant's hospitalisation and a third person's receipt of the postal item.
Solution extraite
Yes. Delivery to the appellant's stated address was sufficient; the authority could rely on postal proof of delivery, and the identity of the person signing did not invalidate service.
Motifs extraits
Postal rules allow delivery to persons present at the same domicile. No special delivery instructions had been given, and there was no reason to doubt that the item reached the appellant's home address. The notice also contained the required warnings.
