Episode Synopsis

The recent decisions G1/22 and G2/22 of the Enlarged Board of Appeal (EBoA) of the European Patent Office (EPO) will be a game-changer, particularly in opposition proceedings.

Which consequences will the "rebuttable presumption" of entitlement to priority have? What will change for applicants? What will opponents have to take into account from now on?

In this episode, our Patent Attorneys Georg Anetsberger, Dr. Anetsberger and Dr. Niels Malkomes discuss these and other questions regarding the entitlement to priority under the European Patent Convention.
