I have had to pay this filing fee before and that time I won. But I was still out the money. When one must pay to file an appeal it setups up the system for corruption. After all, why find someone not guilty when you can ensure an income by finding them guilty, whether they appeal or pay.
It is my belief after dealing with the INjustice system that we need to all heed the words of Thomas Jefferson.

Denial of
free access to the law (
freedom) and the right to petition for redress of grievances.
No due process.
No equality under the law because some filing as paupers have the fees waived and others do not.
The court has a conflict of interest--follow the money trail.
