Orientierungssatz
The grounds on which a decision is based must be communicated to the applicants in such a way that they are put in the position to defend their rights. It is not sufficient to raise an objection without giving the factual details on which this objection is based and then leave it to the applicants to formulate the counterarguments. An objection against the grant of a patent must be raised in such a way that the applicants are able to understand its factual basis and to react accordingly without having to guess first what the examining division might have had in mind.

ORDER

For these reasons it is decided that:

1. The decision under appeal is set aside.

2. The case is remitted to the department of first instance for further prosecution.

3. The appeal fee shall be reimbursed.
