Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the deadline for filing a federal appeal should be restored under Art. 50 Abs. 1 BGG
Decisione estratta
No restoration was possible because the applicant filed the request about five months after expiry of the appeal deadline and did not explain the delay or submit the missed appeal.
Motivazione estratta
Restoration requires a request within 30 days after the impediment ceases and completion of the omitted act. Mere criticism of former counsel and an assertion of late transmission of the judgment did not justify the long delay; the appeal was also not filed together with the request.
