Suspensive effect appeal rejected (R. 223 RoP). 

 

The Applicant has merely claimed that the sending of registered letters (part III of the impugned decision) would be impossible to revert and that the publication of a message on the website of the Applicant (part IV of the impugned decision) would entail "irreversible consequences”, without establishing that the impugned decision is manifestly erroneous. 

 

Even if the Court were to accept that the consequences of these orders are not fully reversible, it does not follow that the appeal becomes devoid of purpose in the absence of suspensive effect and that the Applicant's interest in maintaining the status quo until the decision on appeal outweighs Amycel's legitimate interest informing the Applicant’s customers of the decision.
