Borgenhäll and T. Kempas, lawyers, applicant, v Office for Harmonisation in the Internal Market (Trade Marks and Designs) (OHIM), represented by P. Bullock and G. Schneider, acting as Agents, defendant, the other party to the proceedings before the Board of Appeal of OHIM, intervener before the General Court, being Skruf Snus AB, established in Stockholm (Sweden), represented by S. Malynicz, Barrister, D. Stone and A. Dykes, Solicitors. ACTION brought against the decision of the Third Board of Appeal of OHIM of 3 December 2013 (Case R 1803/2012-3), relating to invalidity proceedings between Swedish Match North Europe AB and Skruf Snus AB. By letter lodged at the Court Registry on 19 June 2015, the applicant informed the Court, in accordance with Article 99 of the Rules of Procedure of the General Court of 2 May 1991, that it withdrew its application. It wished to cancel the proceedings and that the case be removed from the register. By letter lodged at the Court Registry on 26 June 2015, the defendant informed the Court that it had no objection to make concerning the discontinuance of the proceedings but requested that the applicant would be ordered to bear the costs. By letter lodged at the Court Registry on 10 July 2015, the intervener informed the Court that it had no objection to the discontinuance of the proceedings. However, it requested that the applicant should be ordered to bear its own costs and pay the costs of the intervener. Article 136(1) of the Rules of Procedure provides that a party who discontinues or withdraws from proceedings is to be ordered to pay the costs if they have been applied for in the other party’s observations on the discontinuance. The case should therefore be removed from the register and the applicant ordered to bear its own costs and to pay those incurred by the defendant and by the intervener. On those grounds, THE PRESIDENT OF THE FIRST CHAMBER OF THE GENERAL COURT hereby orders: 1. Case T-196/14 is removed from the register of the General Court. 2. Swedish Match North Europe AB shall bear its own costs and pay those incurred by the Office for Harmonisation in the Internal Market (Trade Marks and Designs) (OHIM) and by Skruf Snus AB.
