The company is seated in Heraklion, so it is in Greece. Because the judgment was served, the appeal period runs from service under **Article 518(1) CCP**; the two-year period for an unserved judgment in Article 518(2) does not apply. [Article 518](https://www.nomoskopio.gr/kpold_518.php)

1. **The service date counts against the company even though it arranged service.** Article 144(2) says a service-based period runs against the party at whose request service was made. [Article 144](https://www.nomoskopio.gr/kpold_144.php)
2. **The period is 30 days.** Article 518(1) sets that period for an appellant residing in Greece.
3. **Start counting the next day.** Under Article 144(1), the day of service, Thursday **16 July 2026**, is excluded; the first day is **17 July**.
4. **Count 15 days in July:** 17–31 July inclusive = 15 days.
5. **Pause for August.** Article 147(2) excludes **1–31 August** from the Article 518(1) appeal period.
6. **Count the remaining 15 days:** 1–15 September inclusive = 15 days. The 30th day is **Tuesday 15 September 2026**. Article 144(1) extends a deadline only if its last day is a statutory non-working day; this one is not.

The publication date, 2 July, does not start this appeal period because the judgment was served.

RESULT: deadline = 2026-09-15; rule = Article 518(1) CCP
