Questão jurídica principal
Whether the order of 12 December 2008 had been effectively notified.
Decisão extraída
The notification was not proven; doubts had to be resolved against the authority relying on the notification.
Fundamentação extraída
The burden of proving notification lies on the authority invoking it. A simple mailing without proof of receipt does not exclude loss in transit, so the lack of return of the letter is insufficient proof.
