Dispute Summary
The petitioner sought to declare Rule 22 of the Patent Rules as ultra vires and quash communications from the IPO regarding its delayed filing of a PCT national phase application. The petitioner argued that the rule extinguished substantive rights without proper legislative backing or adherence to international treaties. The court dismissed the petition, holding that Rule 22 was not ultra vires and that the petitioner could not seek pardon for missing the stipulated timeline.
