Exergue
In a last-instance decision, when a request is not allowed on other grounds it is normally superfluous to address further objections raised against that same request that were found unconvincing after having been discussed at oral proceedings. However, the situation is different for a decision of an opposition division, which may be the subject of an appeal. In this case, if the Board is not convinced by the reasons the opposition division gave in support of precluding the maintenance of the patent on the basis of a certain request, the lack of a decision to review in respect of the aforementioned further objections may result in a remittal for the consideration of said further objections, resulting in a delay in the proceedings (point 7 of the Reasons).
