Questão jurídica principal
Whether the missed federal appeal deadline should be restored under Art. 50 BGG
Decisão extraída
The deadline could not be restored because the appellant failed to exercise due care and also filed the replacement act too late.
Fundamentação extraída
He wrongly assumed the appeal period started only upon personal receipt of the judgment, despite the explicit service instruction to his former counsel; moreover, the renewed filing occurred more than 30 days after the obstacle ended.
