3.3 Classification Objections or Broadness Objections

Up one level

When the request for extension of time states that the applicant requests an extension of time to address objections under section 31 or section 32(2), IPONZ will generally accept this as a persuasive reason for exercising the Commissioner’s discretion to grant one extension of time.

A single extension of time is considered reasonable in light of the fact that the applicant has already had a period of time of 12 months from the filing date of the request to address the objection(s).
