Supreme Court voids dismissal of appeal due to late filing, mandating evidence to verify actual receipt date.

The Supreme Court voided the appellate court's dismissal of the cassation appeal as untimely and remanded the case for retrial. The appellant argued that the judgment was mailed on April 30 but received on May 5, making the May 8 filing timely, while the lower court erroneously accepted a handwritten receipt date of April 5. The court ruled that the appellate court failed to conduct necessary evidentiary proceedings to verify the actual receipt date, noting the discrepancy between the mailing date and the appellant's claimed receipt date.
