Opinion:
Opinion
Per Curiam,
This case involves an appeal from the decision of the Court of Common Pleas of Philadelphia County quashing appellant's appeal from an award of arbitrators.
It appears clear from the record that appellant did not pay all of the record costs within the time prescribed by law. Act of June 16, 1836, P. L. 715, §27, as amended, 5 P.S. §71. Payment of these costs within the twenty day period is mandatory to perfect the appeal. Madrid Motor Corporation v. Cashan, 206 Pa. Superior Ct. 383, 213 A. 2d 284 (1965); Fleisher v. Kaufman, 206 Pa. Superior Ct. 378, 212 A. 2d 846 (1965); Budde v. Sandler, 204 Pa. Superior Ct. 36, 201 A. 2d 247 (1964). Por this reason, the decision of the lower court is affirmed.
