Question juridique clé
Whether the appeal had to be entered into despite non-payment of the ordered cost advance.
Solution extraite
No. Because the advance was not paid within the set deadline, the court had to refuse to enter into the appeal.
Motifs extraits
Under Art. 150 OG, the party bringing proceedings before the Federal Court may be required to secure the probable court costs; if the deadline expires without payment, the court must not enter into the filing.
