Argument summary

  • Three invalidity applicants appealed the Invalidity Division’s rejection of their invalidity application against a registered tile design.
  • The design holder opposed the appeal, after which the parties informed the Board that they had reached an amicable settlement.
  • Because the invalidity applicants withdrew the appeal, the Board found there was no longer any need to rule and the appealed decision became final.
  • The appeal proceedings were declared terminated and the Board took note of the parties’ agreement on costs.
