Legal grounds invoked
Argument summary
- ›The applicant argued that the contested bed design lacked novelty and individual character and had been widely disclosed before filing, including by third-party and holder market use.
- ›The holder filed no observations in response to the invalidity application.
- ›The Invalidity Division accepted the Allegro printout as sufficient internet disclosure before 18 July 2024 under Article 7(1) EUDR.
- ›It found the contested design created the same overall impression as the prior bed design despite minor differences, so it lacked individual character under Article 6(1)(b) EUDR.
- ›The application was upheld, the design declared invalid, and the holder ordered to pay EUR 750 in costs.
