Argument summary
- ›Design holder (appellant) appealed the Invalidity Division decision of 26 May 2017 declaring RCD No 2 225 409-0001 (dental instruments) invalid, requesting annulment of that decision.
- ›The invalidity applicant requested dismissal of the appeal; exchanges of pleadings took place through early 2018.
- ›On 23 April 2018 the contested RCD expired through non-renewal by the holder, depriving the appeal of its subject-matter.
- ›The Board declared the appeal proceedings extinguished under Article 26(1) CDR, noting the Invalidity Division's invalidation decision is final; each party bears its own costs since there is no winning or losing party.
