Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the Federal Administrative Appeal Commission rightly refused to hear the appeal after default on the fee advance instalments.
Extrahierter Entscheid
Yes. The appellant missed the deadline for a required instalment and had not invoked any grounds for reinstatement; the warning of non-entry was explicit.
Extrahierte Begründung
The appellant paid the first instalment on time but let the second deadline pass and only later made an untimely partial payment. His request for lower instalments came without restoration grounds and could not cure the default. The payment facility was discretionary and had already been settled in earlier proceedings.
