Supreme Court dismisses appeal regarding failure to submit case file to lower court within statutory time limits.

The Supreme Court of Finland dismissed the appeal lodged by the defendant against the lower court's decision to reject the case file for non-submission. The defendant argued that the lower court erred in rejecting the file due to a procedural delay in submitting it to the court. The court held that the defendant failed to demonstrate a valid reason for the delay and thus the procedural defect warranted rejection of the appeal.
