Key legal question
Whether the federal appeal was admissible despite non-payment of the requested advance on costs.
Extracted holding
The appeal was inadmissible because the appellant did not pay the advance on costs within the set time limit and did not timely prove debit from a postal or bank account.
Extracted reasoning
After a first order under Art. 62(1) LTF and a non-extendable additional deadline under Art. 62(3) LTF, the duly served order was deemed received under Art. 44(2) LTF. The court's cashier confirmed no payment or timely proof of debit.
