1. Because of the obvious need to prevent proceedings from being protracted indefinitely, the Disciplinary Board of Appeal may be forced in borderline cases (Article 5(3) in conjunction with Article 12(3) REE) to decide the issue itself (cf. D 01-03/86, point 2 of the Reasons for the Decision, OJ EPO 1987, 489).
2. When the papers of a candidate who has scored grades 5, 4, 3 and 4 are considered as a whole in accordance with Article 12(3) REE, there is no legal basis for assuming that any results to be considered for offsetting a poor grade, including individual sections within the various papers, must be of at least grade 3 standard or have been awarded equivalent average marks (point 5 of the Reasons for the Decision).
