Argument summary

  • The invalidity applicant had appealed the Invalidity Division's rejection of its application against the tents design.
  • The design holder did not appoint a professional representative and made no substantive reply in the appeal proceedings.
  • Before any merits review, the invalidity applicant withdrew the appeal, so the Board closed the appeal proceedings and the contested decision became final.
  • The withdrawing invalidity applicant was ordered to bear the appeal costs, with no representation costs awarded to the unrepresented design holder.
