Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the appeal was filed within the statutory time limit after edictal service by publication
Extrahierter Entscheid
No. The deadline started with publication in the Federal Gazette on 2012-09-11, and the appeal of 2012-11-24 was late.
Extrahierte Begründung
The appellant did not designate a Swiss address for service despite being asked to do so. Publication in the Federal Gazette therefore constituted valid service, and the 30-day appeal period under the BGG had expired long before the filing date.
