Questão jurídica principal
Whether the federal appeal was admissible despite non-payment of the advance on costs.
Decisão extraída
No. Because the appellant neither paid the advance nor produced proof that the required amount had been debited for the Federal Tribunal, the appeal was inadmissible.
Fundamentação extraída
Under Art. 48(4) LTF, payment must be shown by debit confirmation; absent such proof, Art. 62(3) LTF requires non-entry on the appeal.
