Why are there court fees on appeal?

Dear sir/madam,

Why is there a 2.5% court fee on appeal?

Also if I appeal within 3 days, do I have to pay this extra? Can I open the case in 3 days and then submit the additional documents in 30 days?

Can I also change the amount to below 100,000 in the appeal?

Dear questioner,

The appeal fee is half of the amount paid to the Court of First Instance and you only have 30 days after the ruling to register the appeal.

But if I apply within 3 days of the decision, are there no extra court fees?

The reduction of the amount of the appeal cannot be answered without knowing the details of the case.
