Resumo Omnilex

X.________ SA filed a constitutional appeal against a decision of the Chambre des recours of the Vaud cantonal court in an employment-law matter. The Federal Court ordered an advance of costs of CHF 300 and later granted an additional deadline under Art. 62(3) LTF. Because the advance was still not paid, the President of the First Civil Law Court held the appeal inadmissible and charged judicial costs of CHF 200 to the appellant.

Sumário Omnilex

Art. 62 al. 3 LTF, art. 108 let. a LTF; non-payment of the advance of costs renders the appeal inadmissible. When the appellant fails to pay the requested advance within the original or extended time limit, the Federal Court must not enter into the matter. The inadmissibility follows irrespective of the merits of the appeal; the appellate judge may decide summarily under art. 108 let. a LTF. The judicial costs are borne by the defaulting appellant.

Le Président:
Vu le recours interjeté par X.________ SA contre l'arrêt de la Chambre des recours du Tribunal cantonal du canton de Vaud du 27 novembre 2007 dans la cause précitée.

Vu l'ordonnance du 13 décembre 2007 invitant la recourante à verser jusqu'au 14 janvier 2008 une avance de frais de 300 fr. et l'ordonnance du 22 janvier 2008 fixant en application de l'art. 62 al. 3 LTF un délai supplémentaire jusqu'au 7 février 2008.

Par ces motifs, vu l'art. 108 let. a LTF, le Président prononce:
1.
Le recours est irrecevable.
2.
