On 14 August last the Community Office has published (https://oami.europa.eu/ohimportal/en/web/guest/news/-/action/view/2315759).the performance result of services for the second quarter of 2015, in terms of timeliness, quality and accessibility. Apparently, despite the increase in number of applications compared to the previous quarter the Office is still maintaining its standards. To give you an idea, the Office may register a Community trademark application in 5 months!
Well it also important to mention that similar good quality is represented also in the filing of Designs and some proceedings, as for example oppositions, cancellations, appeals, etc.
Stay tuned!
