Headnote
An appeal unconnected with the reasons given in the appealed
decision (lack of inventive step) and directed only to a new
ground for opposition (lack of novelty) based on a new document
is contrary to the principles laid down in decisions G 9/91 and
G 10/91, according to which an appeal should be within the same
legal and factual framework as the opposition proceedings. It is
tantamount to a new opposition and is thus inadmissible.
