Question juridique clé
Whether the cantonal appeal against the pension refusal was filed late and whether the deadline should be restored.
Solution extraite
The time limit was not to be restored because the notice clearly stated the refusal, the remedies, and the deadlines, and no excusable impediment was shown.
Motifs extraits
The insured had received intelligible written notice; the information given to the neighbour concerned only vocational measures and did not mislead him about the pension refusal. The cantonal court therefore correctly refused restitution and did not enter into the merits.
