Questão jurídica principal
Whether the fax-filed appeal was admissible despite the filing defect and expiry of the appeal deadline.
Decisão extraída
The appeal was inadmissible because a fax filing is invalid and the defect was not remedied within the non-extendable 30-day deadline.
Fundamentação extraída
The Court held that the appellant had been warned that a fax submission is invalid and that the defect could be cured only within the statutory appeal period. That period had already expired, and no valid correction was made.
