Article 458 of the Code of Civil Procedure provides that in order to submit a cassation appeal to the Supreme Court Senate, the appellant shall pay a security deposit in the amount of fifty (50) Lats.
When a decision of the Chamber of Civil Cases on an ancillary complaint regarding a decision of a judge of the land register is appealed in the Senate, a security deposit in the amount of forty lats has to be paid (Article 449, part 4, of the Civil Procedure Law in the wording of 25.05.2006).
Security deposits shall be paid to the following Supreme Court account:
Payee:
LR Augstaka tiesa (Supreme Court), Reg. No. 90000068892
Receiving bank:
Valsts kase, SWIFT TRELLV22
account No. LV83 TREL 8280 0100 0000 0
Ekonomiskās klasifikācijas kods: F22010010
If as the result of the appeal, the Senate overturns or amends the lower court’s ruling in full or in part, the security deposit will be refunded. If the Senate refuses to accept the cassation appeal, the security deposit will not be refunded. If the appellant withdraws its cassation appeal prior to the preliminary screening meeting of the Senate, the security deposit will be refunded.
No security deposit is required from persons who have been released from the payment of government fees either pursuant to law or by a court ruling. Taking into account the material situation of an individual, a court or a judge may, in full a mount or partly, free such person from the payment of the security deposit
