Übersetzung für "Formalsachbearbeiter" in Englisch

The communication was signed by a formalities officer and by the primary examiner of the Opposition Division.

On 28 September 1989 the formalities officer acting for the Opposition Division issued the following decision:

A formalities officer acting for the opposition division rejected the request for inspection of the file.

The formalities officer will take care of the room reservation as is the case for traditional oral proceedings.

The formalities officers will look at the smart card signature.

It is not the intention that the formalities staff should concern themselves with only this Part A of the Guidelines.

The formalities officer will, at any stage in the procedure, immediately communicate the observations of any of the parties to the other parties for information.

The formalities officer is responsible for implementing the decision to keep or return the model.

The formalities officer enters the date on which the decision is to be dispatched on Form 2330.

The notice of opposition must be forwarded directly to the formalities officer, who then places it in the electronic file of the European patent concerned in accordance with the relevant administrative instructions and communicates it without delay to the patent proprietor for information.

There was, however, no indication in the file that the appointed primary examiner had actually authenticated the communication under Art.94(3) EPC before it was dispatched by the formalities officer.

When examining whether an intervention is admissible, the formalities officer and the Opposition Division should proceed as for the examination as to admissibility of an opposition (seeD?IV, 1, D -IV, 3 and D -IV, 5.5) but on the basis of the requirements for intervention under Art.

Of those listed in point 1.2.2.1, only those under (i), (ii) and (vi) are decided, for the same reasons, by formalities officers.

The Formalities Officer of the Opposition Division informed the appellant under Rule 69(1) EPC that the opposition was deemed not to have been filed owing to late payment of the opposition fee.

The formalities officer will check whether the fee has been paid and whether there are any obvious deficiencies as to the language requirements.

Nor does it rule out formalities officers' acting on behalf of opposition divisions, under a business distribution scheme for first-instance departments, to enable technically or legally qualified examiners to devote themselves to substantive examination.

Once the interlocutory decision becomes final or the amended texts in which the patent is to be maintained have been drawn up in opposition appeal proceedings, the formalities officer requests the proprietor of the patent to pay, within three months, the fee for publishing a new specification of the European patent and to file a translation of any amended claims in the two official languages of the EPO other than the language of the proceedings.

Within the framework of the responsibilities of the examining divisions of the EPO, certain employees (formalities officers) who are not technically or legally qualified examiners shall be entrusted with the following duties incumbent on the examining divisions:

Indeed, the cash and accounts department issued the payment sheet already five working days after the receipt of the cheque, and the formalities officer received the payment sheet already two working days later.

The subsequent checking of certain items by the formalities officer should of course also serve to reveal in time any deficiencies which may still be remedied within the periods available.

If the proprietor of the patent files amended documents with his observations, where applicable as part of an alternative request, the formalities officer will invite the other parties to submit observations within a period to be fixed by him (normally four months).

It arises from the fact that, within the context of opposition proceedings, a decision on the inadmissibility of an opposition filed by one of several opponents has been taken by the formalities officer and not by the opposition division.

It follows that the above Notices of the Vice-President of Directorate-General 2, which specify the duties entrusted to formalities officers, could not include within said duties the exercise of powers which pertain, pursuant to provisions of a higher level (such as the Rules), to someone else.

On 28 January 1986 the Formalities Officer issued a Communication which expressed the view that the Administrative Agreement applied to the facts of the case, and that the opposition was considered admissible.

In case of diverging decisions of the Legal or Technical Boards of Appeal, EPO examiners and formalities officers will, as a rule, follow the common practice as described in the Guidelines, which applies until further notice.

As to the letter of 18 April 2001 allowing the correction of the priority data which had been issued by non-examining staff, i.e. a Formalities Officer, the Examining Division held that it was not a decision since it was in the form of a "brief communication" and not signed by the three members of the Examining Division contrary to the requirements of Article 18 EPC.

If the proprietor of the patent, when replying to the notice of opposition, contends that the opposition is inadmissible pursuant to Rule 77(1) and Rule 77 (2), because of deficiencies which are to be specified, the opponent concerned must be given the opportunity to submit his comments within a period fixed by the formalities officer (two months).
