With the notifications dated 03/02/2015, 11/08/2015 and 19/02/2016 (attached) the applicant was informed, that the sign applied for cannot be registered under Article 7(1)(b), (c), 7(2) and 7(3) of the former Community trade mark regulation.

With the latter notice the applicant was given further opportunity to submit further observations/evidence in reply. Pursuant to Article 75 EUTMR, it is up to the Office to take a decision based on reasons or evidence on which the applicant has had an opportunity to present its comments.

The Office has not received any observations within the specified time limit. Consequently further argumentation is superfluous and the application is rejected for the reasons as stated in the above notices pursuant to Article 7(1)(b), (c), 7(2) and 7(3) EUTMR.

According to Article 59 EUTMR, you have a right to appeal against this decision. According to Article 60 EUTMR, notice of appeal must be filed in writing at the Office within two months of the date of notification of this decision. Furthermore, a written statement of the grounds of appeal must be filed within four months of the same date. The notice of appeal will be deemed to be filed only when the appeal fee of EUR 720 has been paid.
