Leitsatz

I. If a part of a drawing identified as a Figure is missing, the missing part is not to be considered as a missing drawing for the purposes of Rule 43 EPC; but the whole Figure is to be considered as an incorrect drawing. The correction of drawings is dealt with in Rule 88 EPC.

II. The evidence required to support a request for correction of a drawing by adding a missing part must be unambiguous.
