Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the complaint against the cantonal judgment was filed within the statutory time limit
Decisione estratta
No. The appeal was filed years after service of the challenged judgment, so the 30-day period had long expired and could not be extended.
Motivazione estratta
An appeal to the Federal Supreme Court must be filed within 30 days of service of the full decision; the complaint decision had been served in late October or early November 2002, making the 2009 filing manifestly late.
