Argument summary
- ›Three invalidity applicants appealed the rejection of their invalidity application against Italcer’s tile design.
- ›The design holder defended the appealed decision, but the parties later reached an amicable settlement.
- ›The invalidity applicants then withdrew the appeal, so the Board held that there was no longer any need to rule on the merits.
- ›The appeal was terminated and the Board merely noted the parties’ agreement on costs.
