Questão jurídica principal
Whether the federal appeal had to be admitted despite non-payment of the cost advance and the appellant's refusal to pay it later.
Decisão extraída
The court did not enter into the appeal because the cost advance was not paid and a grace period was unnecessary given the appellant's express refusal to pay.
Fundamentação extraída
Under Art. 62(3) BGG, a grace period is generally set after an advance-payment default, but it may be omitted when the party clearly states that payment will also not be made within such a period. The case was therefore decided in simplified procedure.
