AI generated

The Supreme Court dismissed the appeal because the question regarding the insurance claim was submitted late to the insurance court, even though it arrived via fax within the statutory deadline. The appellant argued that the fax transmission constituted timely submission, but the court held that physical delivery to the court's office determines timeliness. Consequently, the procedural defect rendered the question inadmissible for review.
