Can I put this part in commas?

Hi!
Can I put this part in commas?

The chairperson also takes into account that the addressee has failed to raise any objections, neither fully nor in any part thereof, against the amount of the requested compensation.

Thanks a lot Emotion: smile

'Fail' is a negative concept; therefore, your sentence should read: The chairperson also takes into account that the addressee has failed to raise any objections, either fully or in any part thereof, against the amount of the requested compensation . You need the commas if you include 'thereof'; if you delete 'thereof' you can also delete the commas.
