Key legal question
Whether the civil appeal should be entered into despite late payment of the advance on costs.
Extracted holding
No. The advance was paid after expiry of the non-extendable deadline, so the appeal was inadmissible in simplified procedure.
Extracted reasoning
The appellant was warned under Art. 62(3) BGG that non-payment in time would lead to inadmissibility. Payment on 2 May 2014 occurred after the deadline following notification on 31 March 2014.
