Key legal question
Whether the appeal was admissible despite non-payment of the court-cost advance within the set deadline.
Extracted holding
No. Because the advance of costs was not paid in time, the appeal had to be declared inadmissible.
Extracted reasoning
Under Art. 62(3) LTF, failure to pay the requested advance within the deadline leads to inadmissibility; costs are borne by the appellant under Art. 66(1) LTF.
