The Supreme Court overturned the Administrative Court's dismissal of a financial company's appeal regarding court fees. The appellant argued that a postal payment confirmation dated within the statutory deadline proved timely payment, despite the funds arriving at the court later. The court ruled that the postal service's delivery receipt serves as an official document establishing the payment date, thereby preserving the seven-day deadline.
