|
The fact that amendments have been made to a claim in the course
of the opposition proceedings does not allow an opponent to
raise an admissible objection under Article 123(2) EPC at the
appeal stage in the absence of the patentee's agreement, if such
objection results from an amendment made before grant and has
not been originally raised as a ground for opposition under
Article 100(c) EPC pursuant to Rule 55(c) EPC (cf Point 2 of the
reasons).
