Question juridique clé
Whether the appeal had to be entered into despite the failure to pay ordered security.
Solution extraite
No. Since the ordered security was not provided within the prescribed time and no extension or reinstatement was requested, the appeal could not be heard.
Motifs extraits
Under Art. 383 CPP, if the complainant does not provide the required security in time, the appellate authority must not enter into the appeal. Security is deemed timely only if paid or otherwise credited by the deadline.
