Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the appeal had to be entered into when the appellant did not pay the ordered security/advance within the extended time limit.
Decisione estratta
No. Because the advance of costs was not paid within the additional deadline, the appeal had to be declared inadmissible.
Motivazione estratta
Under Art. 383(1)–(2) CPP, the appellate authority may require security for costs and may refuse to hear the appeal if the security is not provided on time. The appellant did not pay the CHF 440 advance by 26 August 2013.
