Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the appeal was admissible despite non-payment of the required security for costs.
Decisione estratta
No. Because the required security was not paid within the final deadline, the appellate court could not enter into the merits of the appeal.
Motivazione estratta
Under Art. 383(1) and (2) CPP, the appeal authority may require security and must declare the appeal inadmissible if the security is not furnished in time. The appellants failed to comply even after extensions.
