Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the appellant's request to restore the appeal deadline should be granted due to counsel's illness.
Extrahierter Entscheid
The illness was not shown to have prevented counsel from arranging for a colleague or other third person to complete and file the submission on time.
Extrahierte Begründung
Restoration under Art. 35 OG requires an unexcused obstacle preventing timely action. Even if counsel was personally unable to draft, the request did not establish that delegation of the final drafting to another lawyer or staff member was impossible.
