Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the Federal Tribunal could enter into the appeal filed in October 2010 against the Federal Administrative Court judgment of 10 December 2009.
Decisione estratta
The appeal was filed after expiry of the statutory appeal period and was therefore inadmissible.
Motivazione estratta
Service by publication in the Federal Gazette was valid because no Swiss service address was provided despite repeated requests. The appeal period began on publication and expired on 1 February 2010; the October 2010 filing was therefore late.
