Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the federal criminal appeal was filed within the 30-day time limit.
Decisione estratta
No. The appeal period started on 2013-01-03 and expired on 2013-02-01, so the filing on 2013-02-04 was late.
Motivazione estratta
The challenged judgment was served on 2012-12-19, during the statutory suspension period under Art. 46(1)(c) BGG. Therefore the deadline began after the suspension ended, on 2013-01-03, and the appeal was out of time.
