Supreme Court dismissed extraordinary review against first-instance patent office decision, allowing only review of final appeal board ruling.

The Supreme Court dismissed the extraordinary review filed by the Patent Office President against both the first-instance and second-instance patent decisions. The applicant argued procedural violations occurred during the initial proceedings, but the Court held that extraordinary review applies only to the final, binding decision of the Appeal Commission. Consequently, the Court ruled that procedural errors in the first instance could not be the subject of this specific remedy.
