Headnote
An opposition deemed abandoned for want of evidence was restored, and the registration that had followed in the meantime was cancelled. The opponent had never been served with the detailed grounds of the counter statement, only the form, and a counter statement supplied without its grounds does not comply with the Rules. The Registry's own internal noting had acknowledged that the attorney's email address was wrongly recorded and had directed fresh service.
Disposition
Allowed. Impugned order set aside, the opposition restored to its original number, and registration of the applicant's trade mark cancelled.
