IPO The claimant, John Terence Crilly, filed proceedings under section 8 seeking an order, amongst other things, that patent application number GB 0812748.2 in the name of new Age Radiators Limited and patent application number GB 0816067.3 in the name of Ray Fisher Construction Limited, proceed in his name in preference to the current patent applicants. In the absence of a counter-statement from the patent applicants and those considered likely to have an interest in the matter, the hearing officer considered the proceedings unopposed in accordance with rule 77(9). As such, the hearing officer accepted the facts of the case as set out in the claimant’s statement of grounds and found that John Terence Crilly was entitled to be named as the sole patent applicant in respect of the patent applications. He therefore ordered that the applications should proceed in the name of John Terence Crilly as sole patent applicant.
