Article 12 Failure to comply with directions
Where a party has failed to comply with a direction under these rules given by the Registrar, any affected party may apply to the Registrar for a sanction to be imposed on the defaulting party.
A sanction imposed under paragraph (1) may include the following:
if the defaulting party is an applicant: cancellation of his application in whole or part;
if the defaulting party is a person who has objected to an application: giving effect to the application in whole or in part as if the objection, or part of the objection, had not been made;
if the defaulting party has lodged any caution or is the personal representative of such a person: cancellation of the caution.
A party who intends to apply for such a sanction must do so without delay but must first notify the defaulting party of his intention to do so.
