    Pleas in law: The applicant claims that OHIM infringed Article 8(1)(b) of Regulation No 40/94 by interpreting it incorrectly and that the contested decision is vitiated by infringements of essential procedural requirements (the mark was not properly presented in the opposition, the applicant was not provided, within the period prescribed by law, with the relevant elements of the earlier mark on which the opposition was based and the decision on costs was incorrect).
