Question juridique clé
Whether the constitutional complaint was filed within the statutory 30-day time limit
Solution extraite
No; the deadline expired on 20 October 2003, while the complaint was handed to the post only on 21 October 2003.
Motifs extraits
The decision was received on 19 September 2003. Under the applicable rules, the 30-day period ran from the legally relevant service date and was not extendable; the filing was therefore late.
