48.3 Expressions in this Part

(cf SCR Part 81, rule 3)

(1) Unless the contrary intention appears, expressions used in this Part have the same meanings, in relation to proceedings taken under an intellectual property Act, as they have in that Act.

(2) A reference in any of the intellectual property Acts to a counter-claim (sometimes spelled counterclaim) is taken to be a reference to a statement of cross-claim or cross-summons, as the case requires.

Note : See rule 9.1(3) as to the application of these rules to cross-claims and cross-summonses.
