Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the federal appeal was admissible despite the appellant addressing only the merits and not the missed deadline issue.
Decisione estratta
The appeal was inadmissible because, given the cantonal non-entry ruling, only the missed-deadline issue could be reviewed; the appellant failed to challenge that point.
Motivazione estratta
Under Art. 108 BGG, the court could only examine the procedural reason for the cantonal non-entry decision. The appellant’s submissions concerned only the substance of the case and therefore could not be heard.
