Headnote

An application of 1987 was advertised in 1994, the opposition dismissed in 2009 and the certificate issued in 2019, dating back to a registration that had expired long before. The Registry then pleaded limitation on renewal. He who is at fault can hardly claim locus standi within the statutory scheme to insist on limitation.
