Notice of cancellation

the Registrar will cancel the trade mark at the end of a period of 2 months from the date of the notification.

  (b)   paragraph   (a) does not apply--the Registrar must cancel registration of the trade mark after the end of that period;

unless the request from the owner is withdrawn or a prescribed court determines otherwise.
