Key legal question
Whether the federal criminal appeal was filed within the statutory 30-day time limit.
Extracted holding
The appeal was filed out of time and is therefore inadmissible.
Extracted reasoning
Under Arts. 100(1) and 44(2) LTF, the notification was deemed served on 15 August 2007; the 30-day deadline expired on 14 September 2007, while the filing was posted on 16 September 2007.
