Administrative court dismissed appeal filed via fax against municipal council resolution on municipal debt guarantee.

The Administrative Court of Finland dismissed the appeal lodged against a municipal council's decision to grant a debt guarantee. The appellant submitted the required notice of appeal on the final deadline using the county executive's fax machine, while the council's meeting minutes were also transmitted via fax. The court ruled that the fax transmission did not constitute a legally valid method for filing the appeal, as the law required specific formalities not met by this electronic means.
