Argument summary
- ›The design holder filed an appeal against the Invalidity Division’s decision concerning RCD No. 5 652 401-0001 and indicated bank-transfer payment of the appeal fee.
- ›The Registry informed the design holder that the Office had not received the appeal fee before the deadline and the file showed no timely payment thereafter.
- ›The Board held that, under Article 57 CDR, the notice of appeal is deemed filed only once the appeal fee is paid; since that did not occur in time, the appeal was deemed not filed.
- ›The case ended on procedural grounds without a substantive appeal decision or appeal-costs order.
