Whether the appeal against the refusal to lift guardianship was filed in time
No. The ten-day appeal period had expired on 2010-07-19, so the appeal posted on 2010-08-19 was late.
The decision was notified on 2010-07-08. Under Arts. 393 and 397 CPC, and Art. 40 CPC excluding judicial holidays in interdiction proceedings, the appeal period ran normally and expired on 2010-07-19. The asserted ten-day hospitalization did not explain the much later filing.
