IPO Brian Clarke became a shareholder in Strumat Limited after the filing date of EP1409166. He claims that rights in the application were sold to Globally Greener Solutions Ltd without his knowledge and contrary to the Strumat Shareholder Agreement. The Hearing Office decided to decline to deal with the reference on the basis that the key issue did not relate to patent law and that it would require resolution of factual matters unconcerned with the technical aspects of the invention.
