If an application is found not entitled to registration, the department will advise the applicant and give the reasons for the rejection. The applicant has six months following the rejection within which to reply or amend the application, which will then be re-examined. This procedure may be repeated until:
(a)the department finally refuses registration; or
(b)the applicant allows the six-month response period to lapse without filing a reply, amendment, or appeal.
If the applicant fails to file a proper response within six months, the application is deemed abandoned. An abandoned application may be revived as a pending application if it is shown to the satisfaction of the department that the delay was unavoidable.
