Court of Justice of the European Communities (including Court of First Instance Decisions)

ORDER OF THE PRESIDENT
OF THE THIRD CHAMBER OF THE GENERAL COURT

19 March 2019 (*)

(Removal from the register)

In Case T-171/17 DEP,

M & K Srl, established in Prato (Italy), represented initially by F. Caricato, and subsequently by M. Cartella and B. Cartella, lawyers,

applicant,

v

European Union Intellectual Property Office (EUIPO),

defendant,

the other party to the proceedings before the Board of Appeal of EUIPO, intervener before the General Court, being

Genfoot, Inc., established in Montreal, Quebec (Canada), represented by E. Saarmann and P. Baronikians, lawyers,

APPLICATION for taxation of the costs lodged on 8 February 2019 by Genfoot Inc. following the judgment of 16 October 2018, in M & K v EUIPO – Genfoot (KIMIKA) (T-171/17, non publié, EU:T:2018:683).

1        By letter lodged at the Court Registry on 14 February 2019, the intervener informed the Court, pursuant to Article 125 of the Rules of Procedure of the General Court, that it wished to discontinue the proceedings.

2        The case must therefore be removed from the register.

3        As the proceedings were discontinued prior to service of the application on the applicant and before the latter could have incurred costs, it is sufficient to decide that the intervener must bear its own costs.

On those grounds,

THE PRESIDENT OF THE THIRD CHAMBER OF THE GENERAL COURT

hereby orders:

1.      Case T-171/17 DEP is removed from the register of the General Court.

2.      Genfoot, Inc. shall bear its own costs.

Luxembourg, 19 March 2019.
