Pleas in law and main arguments

The Appellant claims the following infringements of Community law by the appealed judgment:

(b)

Misapplication of Article 81(3) EC by misjudging the burden of rendering evidence and proof

Misapplication of Article 81(3) EC in consequence of misinterpretation or non-consideration of evidence on file, which proves that the applicant (GSK) did not plead on the requirements of Article 81(3) EC sufficiently and by offering sustainable evidence.
