Question juridique clé
Whether the late-filed cantonal appeal could be treated as timely despite the missing legal remedy notice
Solution extraite
Because the first-instance decision lacked a remedy notice and the applicable three-day appeal period was not evident from the cantonal rules, the appellant could rely on protection of good faith; the cantonal court's non-entry had to be annulled.
Motifs extraits
The Federal Court held that the appellant was not required to research unpublished cantonal practice or legislative materials. The short appeal period was not clearly ascertainable from the cited rules, so the omission of the remedy notice could not be offset by alleged procedural negligence.
