Argument summary
- ›After the underlying invalidity appeal had been dismissed, the Office fixed the holder's recoverable representation costs at the regulatory maximums for the invalidity and appeal stages.
- ›The design holder then requested Board review of that costs fixing under Article 70(6) CDR.
- ›Before a substantive ruling on the request, the design holder withdrew the application for review after receiving the invalidity applicant's observations.
- ›The Board therefore declared the review proceedings devoid of purpose and closed them, while noting that the review fee remained forfeited.
