Appeal Dismissed Due to Insufficient Proof of Appellant Insolvency for Cost Security

A party who filed an appeal was ordered to secure the opposing party's costs upon request if the appellant appeared to be insolvent, defined as when their assets were likely insufficient to cover the judgment award, which only needed to be made plausible, not strictly proven. The appellate court dismissed the request for security because the appellant's low income, lack of taxable assets, and a self-serving declaration of destitution made in a separate criminal proceeding were insufficient to credibly establish insolvency, especially given the lack of adverse enforcement records and the possibility of income from a jointly held company.
