What are the reasons for revocation of acceptance?
An application can only be revoked if the Registrar is satisfied that it is reasonable to do so, taking account of all the circumstances involved, such as an error or omission during the course of examination. If information is received from examination staff, third parties or others with specialised knowledge that calls into question the acceptance of the trade mark the application may be revoked. A change of opinion or failure to consider earlier precedent cases is not held to be an omission.
