Question juridique clé
Whether the criminal appeal can be entered into despite non-payment of the court advance.
Solution extraite
No. Because the advance was not paid within the prescribed time, the appeal was not admissible and the Court had to refrain from entering into the matter under Art. 108 BGG.
Motifs extraits
The Court had twice set a deadline and a statutory grace period, with an express warning that failure to pay would lead to non-entry. As the advance remained unpaid, the consequence announced by the Court had to follow.
