Résumé Omnilex

In a social insurance matter, the appellant failed to translate her German-language appeal and annexes into French within the deadline imposed by the administrative court. Because the required collaboration was not provided, the court issued an inadmissibility decision.

Regeste Omnilex

Art. 22 LPA; language of proceedings and duty to collaborate: where a party is ordered to submit translations of a filing and supporting documents into the language of the proceedings and fails to do so within the prescribed time limit, the court may refuse to examine the appeal and declare it inadmissible. The party bears the procedural risk of non-compliance with a formal order intended to ensure a usable record for adjudication.
