Argument summary
- ›The invalidity applicant appealed the Invalidity Division decision rejecting its application based on Article 25(1)(b) in conjunction with Articles 4(1) and 6(1)(b) CDR.
- ›A response to the appeal requested dismissal of the appeal, but the source text labels that party reference inconsistently.
- ›The Board noted that the same contested design was already at issue in case R 2105/2021-3, now pending before the General Court as T-10/23.
- ›Because the court judgment could materially affect this appeal, the Board stayed the proceedings and reserved costs for the final decision.
