Exergue
If the notice of appeal is to be considered in the context of the file history, the true intention needs to be confirmed by external facts and evidence at least to prevent that requirements such as those of Article 107 EPC be circumvented (point 9).
In applying Rule 139 EPC to a party's request to correct a mistake in the notice of appeal in respect of the identity of the appellant, the principle of legal certainly needs to be taken into consideration (point 10).

Order

For these reasons it is decided that:

1. The request for correction of the name, the address and the mention of the nationality of the Appellant is allowed.

2. The appeal is admissible.

3. The proceedings on the substantive issues will be continued in writing.
