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

ORDER OF THE PRESIDENT
OF THE EIGHTH CHAMBER OF THE GENERAL COURT

15 February 2019 (*)

(Removal from the register)

In Case T-725/18,

Intercontinental Exchange Holdings, Inc., established in Atlanta, Georgia (United States), represented by R. Hoy, Solicitor, and J. Bowhill, Barrister,

applicant,

v

European Union Intellectual Property Office (EUIPO),

defendant,

Action brought against the decision of the Second Board of Appeal of EUIPO of 24 September 2018 (Case R 624/2018-2), relating to an application for registration of the word mark BRENT as a European Union trademark.

1        By letter lodged at the Court Registry on 30 January 2019, the applicant 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 defendant and before the latter could have incurred costs, it is sufficient to decide that the applicant must bear its own costs.

On those grounds,

THE PRESIDENT OF THE EIGHTH CHAMBER OF THE GENERAL COURT

hereby orders:

1.      Case T-725/18 is removed from the register of the General Court.

2.      Intercontinental Exchange Holdings, Inc. shall bear its own costs.

Luxembourg, 15 February 2019.
