Answer and explanation

Correct answer A

After an opposition has been validly abandoned, the aggrieved opponent can challenge the resulting registration by seeking rectification before the Registrar or the High Court under section 57. Rectification is a challenge to an entry in the register and does not reopen the abandoned opposition itself. A timely extension request that prevents abandonment must be distinguished from seeking to condone delay after a valid abandonment.
