A document considered in the examination procedure, therefore, is not automatically scrutinised in opposition or opposition appeal proceedings, even if quoted and acknowledged in the contested European patent. 2. If the document is not introduced into the opposition proceedings in due time, its relevance is examined by the Office in the course of the enquiries it conducts of its own motion (Article 114(1) EPC). |
