Legislator summary

AI generated

The Finnish Insurance Court dismissed the appellant's appeal as untimely because the decision was deemed received on June 1, 1978, rather than the actual mailing date of May 31, 1978. The appellant argued for a later receipt date, but the court found no evidence supporting a delay beyond the seven-day notification rule. Consequently, the 30-day appeal period expired on June 30, 1978, rendering the July 4, 1978 submission inadmissible.
