Evidence—unregistered particulars
196 Evidence—unregistered particulars
A document in respect of which particulars have not been entered in the Register is not admissible in any proceedings in proof of the title to a patent or to an interest in a patent unless:
the court or tribunal before which the proceedings are brought otherwise directs; or
the proceedings are:
for an order under section 192; or
to enforce equities in relation to a patent or licence.
However, subsection (1) does not restrict the admissibility in any proceedings of a document in relation to a PPSA security interest.
Certain particulars relating to registrations in respect of PPSA security interests under the Personal Property Securities Act 2009 are admissible in evidence: see section 174 of that Act.
