Summary

A reference made by the claimant under section 8 relating to entitlement to a UK patent application was not defended. The hearing officer found that the claimant was entitled to the patent application. Bearing in mind that the patent application had been withdrawn, the hearing officer ordered that the register be updated to name the claimant as sole applicant for the patent application, and ordered that the claimant may file a new application under section 8(3))(c) within the prescribed period.
