- Obligation of opposition division to consider request to correct minutes of oral proceedings
Admissibility of appeal (no) - Catchword
- When presented with a request for correction of the minutes, the first instance (in this case, the opposition division) should respond thereto. However, if the first instance sees fit to ignore this obligation, there is nothing the board can do in this respect. The board has no power to compel the opposition division to discharge its obligations.
