Key legal question
Whether the reform appeal is admissible despite non-payment of the ordered advance on costs
Extracted holding
The appeal is inadmissible because the appellant did not pay the advance within the fixed deadline.
Extracted reasoning
Under Art. 150(4) OJ, failure to pay the requested advance within the time limit makes the appellant's submissions inadmissible; the deadline had been expressly set without extension and with warning of the consequences.
