Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the criminal appeal had to be declared inadmissible for failure to pay the advance on costs within the extended deadline.
Decisione estratta
Yes. After the appellant did not pay the requested CHF 2,000 advance, and then also failed to comply with the additional deadline, the appeal had to be dismissed as manifestly inadmissible.
Motivazione estratta
Under Art. 62 paras. 1 and 3 LTF, non-payment of the required advance within the additional deadline results in inadmissibility; the court therefore proceeded under Art. 108 para. 1 let. a LTF.
