Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the appeal had to be entered into despite non-payment of the advance on costs.
Decisione estratta
No. Because the ordered advance on costs was not paid within the final extended deadline, the appeal had to be declared inadmissible.
Motivazione estratta
Under Art. 69(1bis) LAI and Art. 47(2)-(3) LPA-VD, the court may require an advance on costs and warn that failure to pay leads to non-entry into the appeal. The appellant did not pay, and counsel confirmed that the client did not wish to continue the proceedings.
