Supreme Court dismissed appeal to restore deadline for personal appeal, ruling it belongs to second instance court.
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court dismissed the plaintiff's appeal regarding the restoration of the deadline for filing a personal appeal. The plaintiff argued that a personal appeal filed within the time limit, accompanied by a request for a court-appointed lawyer, should have been accepted by the second-instance court rather than rejected by the Supreme Court. The court ruled that the Supreme Court lacks jurisdiction to review such requests because the restoration of a deadline is a procedural matter reserved for the court that originally rejected the appeal.
