The Federal Patent Court's 26th Senate granted the applicant's petition for reinstatement into the previous legal standing, effectively waiving the deadline for paying the appeal fee and allowing the trademark complaint to proceed. The dispute arose from a trademark complaint procedure concerning a word/figurative mark application, where the applicant failed to timely deposit the appeal fee due to a procedural failure. The court determined that the applicant had plausibly demonstrated, without fault attributable to herself or her legal representative, that she was prevented from making the payment in time, thereby satisfying the requirements for equitable relief. The decision was grounded in the German Trademark Act (§ 91 Abs. 1 Satz 1 MarkenG) regarding reinstatement and applied the standard of personal fault from the Code of Civil Procedure (§ 85 Abs. 2 ZPO) to attribute responsibility to the procedural representative.

[TENOR]

In der Beschwerdesache

hat der 26. Senat (Marken-Beschwerdesenat) des Bundespatentgerichts in der Sitzung vom 3. März 2010 durch den Vorsitzenden Richter Dr. Fuchs-Wissemann, den Richter Reker und den Richter Lehner

beschlossen:

Der Anmelderin wird auf ihren Antrag Wiedereinsetzung in die Frist zur Einzahlung der Beschwerdegebühr gewährt.

[GRUENDE]

Die Anmelderin hat glaubhaft gemacht, ohne eigenes oder ihr zuzurechnendes Verschulden ihrer Verfahrensbevollmächtigten (§ 85 Abs. 2 ZPO) an der rechtzeitigen Einzahlung der Beschwerdegebühr verhindert gewesen zu sein.

Ihr war daher antragsgemäß Wiedereinsetzung in den vorigen Stand zu gewähren (§ 91 Abs. 1 Satz 1 MarkenG).
