Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the deadline for the state-law constitutional complaint should be restored under Art. 35 OG
Extrahierter Entscheid
Restoration was refused because the representative could not show an unavoidable impediment; a postbox holder must empty the box regularly and bears the risk of delayed pickup.
Extrahierte Begründung
By opening a postbox, the representative accepted that official mail may be deposited there. Since the box was not emptied for weeks, the missed deadline was attributable to his own conduct, not to an unavoidable obstacle.
