The rule is that any appeal of an arbitration 3020-a must be filed and the Index number purchased within 10 calendar days. If you do not do that, the appeal is dismissed.
Even non-lawyers like me know that. Marcella Sills' lawyer, Attorney Douglas Rosenthal of Spring Valley N.Y. didn't seem to know what he was doing. My opinion. Oh - he also put Carmen Farina in the caption as "New York State Education Department Commissioner":
Really? Who knew?

Fired ‘School of No’ principal has petition to get job back tossed by judge
A judge has tossed out the reinstatement petition of a former
Queens principal axed for being chronically tardy — because she filed it late.
Marcella Sills was removed from PS 106 in
Far Rockaway by Schools Chancellor Carmen Fariña in 2014, after a series of
Post exposés.
While Sills’ students went without basic supplies or
instruction, the administrator was cited for being late 178 times between
September 2012 and January 2014.
Despite that, Sills sought to reverse her sacking, arguing
in court papers that there was no established start and end time for city principals.
Lateness, she contended, was in the eye of the beholder.
But a Manhattan judge reminded her this week that timeliness is
not negotiable when it comes to the court system.
Sills, who earned $128,000 a year, was officially fired from the Department of Education on Jan. 22 of
this year, after an administrative hearing, and had 10 days to submit her
petition. But, true to form, she took her time. “Petitioner commenced this
proceeding on April 19, 2016, over two months after the 10-day limitations
period had expired, and this proceeding is time-barred,” wrote Manhattan Judge
Manuel Mendez in junking her petition.
After a recitation of her offenses, Mendez slammed the door on
her DOE career.
“This proceeding is dismissed,” he wrote.
But she was ultimately buried under a total of 15 charges for offenses committed during the 2013 and 2014 school years.
In addition to her perennially busted alarm clock , Sills was cited for hindering the investigation against her and for having “subjected the NYCDOE to widespread negative publicity, ridicule and notoriety” and misusing her position “for personal benefit,” according to Mendez’s ruling.
After a 22-day hearing, an arbitrator found her conduct “too extreme to support any penalty other than discharge.”
PS 106 was dubbed the “School of No” after the Post’s articles on its culture of student deprivation and administrative incompetence.
The campus had no Common Core textbooks, no physical-education or art classes, no proper nurse’s office and no special-education staffers.
Instead of actual instruction, kids were herded into the school auditorium where they “watched more movies than Siskel and Ebert,” a whistleblower told The Post at the time.
