Questão jurídica principal
Whether the deadline for filing the federal appeal should be restored under Art. 50 para. 1 BGG.
Decisão extraída
No. The applicant did not show an excusable impediment; it was objectively and subjectively reasonable for him to appoint a third party to act for him.
Fundamentação extraída
Restoration requires an impediment without fault. The applicant's own account showed that he could have authorized a third person. His inability to find a 'serious' person to do so is attributable to him as fault.
