Key legal question
Whether the criminal appeal to the Federal Supreme Court was admissible despite non-payment of the required cost advance.
Extracted holding
The appeal was inadmissible because the appellant did not pay the required advance within the extended deadline.
Extracted reasoning
Under Art. 62 para. 1 LTF, the party must pay the presumed costs in advance. After a first non-payment, failure to pay within the additional deadline leads to inadmissibility under Art. 62 para. 3 LTF. The appellant ignored the extended deadline.
