Key legal question
Whether the appeal against the 25 June 2010 opposition decision still had an object after the new decision of 13 May 2011.
Extracted holding
No. The new decision replaced the earlier opposition decision and the appeal therefore became moot; the case had to be removed from the docket.
Extracted reasoning
The new decision had the same object and scope as the earlier one and was a new ruling on the same question, taking account of later developments. The earlier decision was thus withdrawn or superseded.
