  "long_title": "These Rules correct an error in the Trade Marks Rules 2008 (SI 2008/1797). In Rule 40(1) reference is made to the “applicant” having filed a Form TM8 whereas (as is clear from rule 39(3)) it is for the proprietor of the trade mark to file a Form TM8 if the proprietor wishes to contest the application for revocation. These Rules correct this error by deleting the reference to the “applicant” and substituting a reference to the “proprietor”.",
