IPO Costs, Revocation, Withdrawal – The previous Preliminary Decision admitted an amended statement, and awarded some costs to the defendant but stayed payment. It gave the defendant the choice of how to proceed, and the defendants decided not to contest the application for revocation. The present decision accordingly revoked the patent. Further costs were awarded, but this time to the claimant. As they exactly offset the original order, the final order for costs was that both sides should bear their own costs.
