Questão jurídica principal
Whether the public law appeal was admissible despite non-payment of the ordered advance on costs.
Decisão extraída
The appeal was inadmissible because the appellant did not pay the advance within the set deadline and did not request an extension.
Fundamentação extraída
Under Art. 150 para. 1 and 4 OJ, security for likely judicial costs must be provided within the deadline fixed by the president; otherwise the submissions are inadmissible. The simplified procedure under Art. 36a para. 1 OJ therefore applied.
