EPO Administrative Council Meeting Turning Point - Part V: “Siegfried Bross as President of the Boards of Appeal!”

Summary: Retired judge Siegfried Broß is jokingly named as the person who should head the independent Boards of Appeal that keep the Office in check

In the first, second, third and fourth parts we gave away pretty much all the information which we are safe to publicly share. There is more that we know, but now isn't the best time to speak on all matters. The EPO will certainly issue some face-saving statement some time very soon. Don't trust it. The EPO's statements have had a 100% track record of lying as of late (unless they speak of some major tragedy in an opportunistic appeal for sympathy). Here is a recent classic.

"The EPO's statements have had a 100% track record of lying as of late (unless they speak of some major tragedy in an opportunistic appeal for sympathy).""I am hearing some very encouraging news from the EPO today," I stated earlier tonight, and "I will write about this later." Whatever the EPO may say today (or later than today), we are prepared to rebut/correct/respond. "Danish journalists get interested," we have meanwhile been told regarding the situation. In fact, we have been in touch with some. Will the press write about the latest issues or has the media been paid enough to be thoroughly gagged across Europe (self-censorship and spiking of important stories)? We shall see...

One person asked the other day: "Are there any news about the fate of the suspended member of the BoA?"

Well, it seems as though it's forever limbo for him, at least while Battistelli stays in power and his term is not officially over. Frankly, after making some jokes about it (not especially quote-worthy) the subject of the BoA's member's new boss came up, then more notably (albeit still rather funny, maybe not by intention) a response to a comment mentioned here the other day:

"VP4 has applied for the job as President of the Boards of Appeal"

Siegfried Bross as President of the Boards of Appeal! - who's with me?


VP4 is Battistelli's 'bulldog' and Siegfried Broß, whom we wrote about several times before, is like the 'anti-Battistelli'. Here is a polite reply to this:

Siegfried Bross as President of the Boards of Appeal! - who's with me?

Certainly not Blatterstelly and his chums in the Admin Council.

The Prof. has publicly exposed them as the parcel of rogues that they are: http://ipkitten.blogspot.de/2015/11/former-judge-says-actions-of-ac-and.html

And the Procurator-General of the EPO, VP5 is also likely to take a dim view of the public criticism of that exquisite Corsican delicacy "la justice à la sauce Battistelli": http://ipkitten.blogspot.de/2015/11/by-juve-epo-responds-to-professor-bro.html

With enemies like that his prospects of securing the job - were he interested it - would be sub-zero.

But someho I doubt whether the good Professor would even be interested in a role as a second-grade Kapo in the wilderness of Haar.


Whatever happened next at the EPO, it sure looks like Battistelli's plans come tumbling down and he just isn't getting his way anymore. Siegfried Broß, who was on Bavarian television and Juve (several times on this topic, which he is very familiar with), often compared the situation at Eponia to that of Guantánamo Bay. Could Eponia be redeemed before the entire Office (and Organisation which recognises "a crisis") becomes a footnote of history? We certainly hope so. Eponia needs to recognise, respect, accept, follow, obey, and/or embrace the Rule of Law.
