What matters in determining domicile for the prescribed additional time allowance for distance is the domicile adopted by the appellant himself during the stages of litigation preceding the challenge. Changing it in the statement of challenge to another domicile does not avail him. Example.

العبرة في تحديد الموطن فيما نص عليه من ميعاد مسافة. هو الموطن الذي اتخذه الطاعن نفسه في مراحل التقاضي السابقة على الطعن. لا يجديه تغييره في صحيفة الطعن إلى موطن آخر. مثال.
