— |
Referral back to the Board of Appeal for a fresh examination. |
Pleas in law and main arguments
Community trade mark concerned: Word mark CAPS for goods in Classes 7, 16 and 17 — application No 4 957 131
Decision of the Examiner: Rejection of the application
Decision of the Board of Appeal: Dismissal of the appeal
Pleas in law: The Board of Appeal infringed essential procedural requirements and Council Regulation No 40/94, in part by failing to declare that the appeal should have been translated into the applicant's first language, Swedish, and in part by upholding the appeal and continuing to correspond in English. The Board of Appeal thus failed to comply with the principles of the protection of legitimate expectations and of the right to equal treatment.
