Key legal question
Whether the federal appeal was filed within the statutory time limit after service by post.
Extracted holding
The appeal was timely because the cantonal judgment was deemed notified seven days after the failed delivery attempt, making 2 July 2012 the last day for filing.
Extracted reasoning
Under Arts. 100, 44 and 45 LTF, deemed service occurs seven days after the first unsuccessful delivery attempt; the postal tracking data showed the deadline expired on 2 July 2012.
