Argument summary

  • After the Community design expired for non-renewal, the design holder filed a request for restitutio in integrum seeking reinstatement into the additional renewal period and paid the relevant fees.
  • The Operations Department rejected the restitutio request and ordered reimbursement of the renewal and surcharge fees, after which the design holder appealed.
  • The Registry later informed the design holder that the appeal was likely inadmissible because no statement of grounds had been filed, and the design holder then withdrew the appeal.
  • The Board closed the appeal proceedings and the rejection of restitutio became final.
