Summary of Facts and Submissions

The appellant filed a notice of appeal by a letter received on 27 September 2011 and paid the fee for appeal on the same day. No Statement of Grounds was filed. The notice of appeal contains nothing that could be regarded as a Statement of Grounds pursuant to Article 108 EPC.
