Questão jurídica principal
Whether the criminal appeal was filed within the federal time limit after notification through the internal messenger service
Decisão extraída
The judgment was notified when delivered to the messenger service on 2010-11-03; the 30-day deadline expired on 2010-12-03, so the appeal filed on 2010-12-06 was late.
Fundamentação extraída
Notification under the applicable cantonal procedure occurs upon delivery to an authorized messenger service receiving the decision on behalf of the authority. This was not arbitrary and did not amount to excessive formalism.
