The practice for fixing the date of oral proceedings before the departments of first instance and the boards of appeal was published in a notice in OJ 2000, 456 ("the 2000 Notice"). For proceedings before the boards of appeal, the content of this notice was confirmed by the notice from the Vice-President DG 3 of 16 July 2007 (OJ SE 3/2007, 115) ("the 2007 Notice"). The EPO's notice of 18 December 2008 (OJ 2009, 68) ("the 2008 Notice") adjusted the procedure for changing the date before the departments of first instance.
