Argument summary

  • The design holder (INTAV S.r.l.) filed an appeal on 4 June 2018 against the Invalidity Division's decision of 6 April 2018 declaring RCD No 003110733-0001 (vehicle signal lights) invalid.
  • The holder failed to file the mandatory written statement of grounds within the four-month deadline prescribed by Article 57 CDR (deadline: 13 August 2018).
  • The Board notified the holder on 21 August 2018 that the appeal would be declared inadmissible; the holder did not respond.
  • The Board dismissed the appeal as inadmissible under Article 57 CDR and Article 35 REDC; no representation costs were awarded given no procedural activity by the invalidity applicant.
