Marginal note:Representation — patent granted on or after coming-into-force date
221 In respect of a patent — other than a reissued patent — granted on or after the coming-into-force date, on the basis of an application preceding the coming-into-force date, for which there are joint patentees and in respect of which no common representative is appointed under paragraph 26(3)(a), if, immediately before the patent was granted, no common representative was appointed in respect of that application,
(a) subsection 26(7) and paragraph 27(7)(a) do not apply;
(b) any appointment of a patent agent on or after the coming-into-force date may, despite subsection 27(3), be made by the patentees only by a notice to that effect signed by all of the patentees and submitted to the Commissioner; and
(c) an appointment of a patent agent, including a deemed appointment, may be revoked by submitting to the Commissioner a notice to that effect signed by all of the patentees or by that patent agent.
