Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the federal appeal had to be dismissed because the advance on costs was not paid in time.
Extrahierter Entscheid
Yes. After a first deadline and a non-extendable additional deadline, no advance was paid, so the appeal had to be declared inadmissible under Art. 62(3) LTF.
Extrahierte Begründung
The court found that the additional order had been sent by registered mail to the address given by the appellant, was not collected, and was therefore deemed received under Art. 44(2) LTF. The time limit expired without payment.
