Question juridique clé
Whether the late cantonal appeal had to be admitted because the notice incorrectly stated a three-month deadline.
Solution extraite
No. The insured person could not invoke reliance protection because her lawyer should have detected the error by consulting the statute; the appeal was therefore time-barred.
Motifs extraits
Under good faith, an incorrect appeal notice is generally protected unless the party or counsel could have recognized the error. Here, the statutory text clearly showed that the old three-month period in Art. 106 UVG had been repealed, so the lawyer committed gross procedural negligence by not checking the law.
