Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the criminal complaint/appeal could be entered into despite non-payment of the advance on costs
Decisione estratta
No; because the advance on costs was not paid within the prescribed deadline and grace period, the Federal Court could not enter into the appeal under summary procedure.
Motivazione estratta
The court had set a deadline and statutory grace period for payment of a CHF 2,000 advance, with the consequence of non-entry. As payment was not made, the condition for admissibility was unmet.
