Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the late appeal to the Department should be accepted through restoration of the missed deadline.
Decisione estratta
No. The appellant failed to show an excusable, non-self-inflicted impediment preventing timely action.
Motivazione estratta
The court held that the appellant had enough opportunity to seek help from his guardian/assistant or family companion. The absence of proof for the alleged support problems meant the delay was attributable to him.
