Key legal question
Whether the time limit for the earlier appeal should be restored under Art. 50 BGG
Extracted holding
The requirements for restoration were not met because the reasons invoked did not constitute an unavoidable impediment, and the request could not be used to cure an insufficiently reasoned appeal after the deadline.
Extracted reasoning
The applicant's reliance on non-payment of legal expenses by the legal protection insurer and on an assumed possibility of later supplementation did not amount to an excusable impediment. The Court had already informed him that the defective filing could only be corrected within the non-extendable appeal period, and no timely correction was made.
