Question juridique clé
Whether the appeal against the Federal Administrative Court judgment was filed within the legal time limit.
Solution extraite
The appeal was filed late because the deadline expired on 2007-09-27 and the filing was made on 2007-10-01.
Motifs extraits
Under Arts. 100(1), 44(1) and 48(1) LTF, the deadline runs from the day after notification and is met only if the brief is handed to the court, Swiss Post, or a Swiss diplomatic/consular mission by the last day. None of the invoked circumstances justified restoration under Art. 50(1) LTF.
