I. The appeal is directed against the decision of the opposition division posted on 8 December 2021.
II. The appellant filed a notice of appeal on 3 February 2022 and paid the appeal fee on the same day.
III. By communication of 3 May 2022, receipt of which was confirmed by mailbox delivery, the appellant's attention was drawn to the missing statement of grounds, and to the legal consequence that the appeal was likely to be rejected as inadmissible.

For these reasons it is decided that:
The appeal is rejected as inadmissible.
