Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the federal criminal appeal was filed within the statutory 30-day time limit
Decisione estratta
The appeal was filed after expiry of the deadline and is therefore inadmissible.
Motivazione estratta
The relevant date is the postal delivery to an authorized recipient on 21 June 2013, not the law firm’s internal receipt stamp. Even with the statutory suspension period, the deadline expired on 22 August 2013; the filing on 26 August 2013 was late.
