ORDER OF THE PRESIDENTOF THE GENERAL COURT

20 July 2017 (*)

(Removal from the register)

In Case T-412/17,

Disney Enterprises, Inc., established in Burbank, California (United States), represented by M. Graf, lawyer,

applicant,

v

European Union Intellectual Property Office (EUIPO),

defendant,

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

Hummel Holding A/S, established in Aarhus (Denmark),

ACTION brought against the decision of the Second Board of Appeal of EUIPO of 3 April 2017 (Case R 1671/2016-2), relating to proceedings for revocation entre Hummel Holding A/S and Disney Enterprises, Inc..


1        By letter lodged at the Court Registry on 12 July 2017, the applicant informed the Court, that the other party before the Board of Appeal of EUIPO had withdrawn its application for revocation of the contested trademark with immediate effect and as a consequence the action before the Court has become obsolete. Moreover, by letter lodged at the Court Registry on 17 July 2017, 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, according to Article 136 of the Rules of Procedure of the General Court, that the applicant must bear its own costs.

On those grounds,

THE PRESIDENT OF THE GENERAL COURT

hereby orders:

1.      Case T-412/17 is removed from the register of the General Court.

2.      Disney Enterprises, Inc. shall bear its own costs.

Luxembourg, 20 July 2017.
