schestowitz | "The prospect of a referral, and a stay, with its likely hugely negative effect on management's precious "production" statistics, is surely seen on the top floor of the EPO as an "appalling vista", intolerable at any price.<br /><br />UK readers will recall that expression from Lord Denning's notorious speech in 1980 refusing to admit a petition from the wrongly-imprisoned Birmingham Six (because if their petition we | Nov 30 01:38 |
schestowitz | re to be admitted and then succeed if would mean that there had been a scandalous and egregious miscarriage of justice which would destroy the confidence of the English in their system of administration of justice). <br /><br />My suspicion is that, in the event of a referral, EPO upper management will simply give instructions to DG 1 to ignore T166/84 and instead to carry on regardless. After all, nobody will thereby suffer any harm, | Nov 30 01:38 |
schestowitz | will they? And then, as the next step, it will set about engineering a creative EBA decision that legitimates established practice. What's going to stop that happening, I wonder." | Nov 30 01:38 |

schestowitz | "There is no question that, if a referral is made to the EBA, a stay <b>should</b> be imposed in all cases where the decision depends entirely on the outcome of the referral.<br /><br />See the CLBA at V.A 11.6.15 (https://www.epo.org/en/legal/case-law/2022/clr_v_a_11_6_15.html):<br />"<i>Where a decision of the examining division depended entirely on the outcome of proceedings before the Enlarged Board of Appeal on a legal questio | Nov 30 01:41 |
schestowitz | n or point of law raised under Art. 112 EPC 1973 ‒ and this was known to the examining division ‒ the further examination of the application had to be suspended until the matter had been decided by the Enlarged Board of Appeal. Failure to do so amounted to a substantial procedural violation under R. 67 EPC 1973 (T 166/84, OJ 1984, 489). See also chapter V.B.2.5.3 "Stay of first instance proceedings following a referral".</ | Nov 30 01:41 |
schestowitz | i>"<br /><br />However, given the potentially dramatic (negative) effect upon the EPO's "production" figures, I agree that it is far from clear whether a stay of proceedings will be granted (either <i>ex officio</i> or upon request) in relevant cases, or whether the legal principle set out in T 166/84 will instead be consigned to the waste bin." | Nov 30 01:41 |

schestowitz | "How cannot be shameful a decision which violates art. 52(1) EPC ("...SHALL grant...") and is based instead on art. 125 EPC which does not have much to do with double patenting, and even if this had been the case, then it should have allowed double patenting as most EPC member states allow double (European/national) patenting (e.g. Germany, France, Italy and many others)?<br />Moreover, the same EPO allows double patenting whe | Nov 30 01:42 |
schestowitz | n applicants are not exaclty the same.<br />Furthermore, it is clear already from the TP that double patenting was a matter left to national law, so G 4/19 deprives EPC member states to get double patents, if their national law allows.<br />Anyway, I agree with tou that G 2/19 is also shameful, while G 3/19 and G 1/21 are on the borderline." | Nov 30 01:42 |
schestowitz | "Interesting. Of all the EBA's decisions, I would not have identified G4/19 ("Double patenting") as being "shameful".<br /><br />Care to share your reasons for finding G4/19 to be so distasteful?<br /><br />Personally, I would have thought that, if one were seeking exemplars of "shameful" EBA decisions, then one need look no further than G2/19 ("Right to be heard and the correct venue for oral proceedi | Nov 30 01:42 |
schestowitz | ngs"), G3/19 ("Article 164(2) EPC / Pepper") or G1/21 ("Oral proceedings by videoconference")." | Nov 30 01:42 |
