No man shall be judge in his own cause. Justice must not only be done but must be seen to be done. [00:06] schestowitz__ Is it that EPO executives, managers and, indeed, and governors are all unfamiliar with such concepts? [00:06] schestowitz__ Or is it that they do grasp them, at an instinctive level, but have meanwhile become inured to ignoring them? [00:06] schestowitz__ Reply [00:06] schestowitz__ AnonymousWednesday, 17 March 2021 at 21:20:00 GMT [00:06] schestowitz__ I am sorry, but I can't share more details; the source is extremely reliable: you'll see that this is no joke, unfortunately. I could myself not believe it, when I was told, but I am not surprised.

Please tell me that this is some kind of sick joke. I had seen the recent change regarding a date of oral proceedings but had never contemplated that it would relate to proceedings before the EBA. [00:07] schestowitz__ If true, then this development would be just like crime in a multi-storey car park ... just wrong on so many levels. [00:07] schestowitz__ Firstly, the referral is not even listed on the EPO web site. Can the patent profession really be expected to put together amicus briefs in the extremely short time that would be available between publication of details of the case (presumably by end of March) and a date sufficiently in advance of the oral proceedings to permit detailed consideration of those briefs? This would compare unfavourably even to the obviously sham [00:07] schestowitz__ consultation on Art 15a RPBA! [00:07] schestowitz__ Secondly, unless the parties to the proceedings all agree to the VICO format, how can OPs before the EBA possibly be conducted by VICOs without (at the very least) giving the impression of the EBA having already reached a decision on the answer to the question referred? [00:07] schestowitz__ Thirdly, the inclusion of members that drafted the proposal for Art 15a RPBA would, if true, be completely beyond the pale. The inclusion of such members would kill off any prospect of even the APPEARANCE of impartiality.
