Kernrechtsfrage
Whether a faxed appeal filing is admissible before the Federal Supreme Court.
Extrahierter Entscheid
No. Appeals must be filed in the legally prescribed form, either by hand delivery/post or by electronically signed electronic submission; a fax filing is invalid.
Extrahierte Begründung
The submission was sent by fax and therefore did not satisfy Art. 48(1) and Art. 42(4) BGG. The appellant also failed to submit a valid corrective filing after being notified.
