¹ The paediatric certificate is null and void when:

a.: it is issued in contravention of Article 140t or if it subsequently contravenes Article 140t;
b.: it is issued in contravention of Article 140u paragraph 2;
c.: the patent lapses before the end of its maximum term (Art. 15);
d.: the patent is found to be null and void;
e.: the patent is limited to such an extent that its claims no longer cover the product for which the paediatric certificate was granted;
f.: after the patent has lapsed, there are grounds which would have justified a declaration of nullity under letter d or a limitation under letter e.

² Any person may bring an action for the paediatric certificate to be declared null and void before the authority competent to declare the patent null and void.

Art. 140u

¹ Le droit au certificat pédiatrique appartient au titulaire du brevet.

² Un seul certificat pédiatrique est délivré pour chaque produit.

³ Toutefois, si plusieurs demandes émanant de plusieurs titulaires de brevets différents portant sur le même produit sont pendantes, chaque titulaire peut obtenir un certificat pédiatrique à condition que le destinataire de l’attestation au sens de l’art. 140t, al. 1, let. a, ait donné son accord.
