7.1. Fixing or changing the date for oral proceedings
7.1.2 Oral proceedings in closely-related cases
As the case at hand in T 2702/19 was closely related to appeal cases T 2401/19 and T 953/21, the oral proceedings in these three cases were held consecutively, starting with case T 953/21 and continuing with cases T 2401/19 and T 2702/19. Having heard the parties in the other related cases, the board announced a final decision in each of these three appeal cases on the same day.
