Headnote

In order to comply with the two-months' time limit laid down in Article 122(2) EPC, it is not necessary that the application for re-establishment of rights provide any prima facie evidence for the facts set out in it, nor is it necessary that it indicate the means by which those facts are supported (e.g. medical certificates, sworn statements and the like). Such evidence may be submitted after the time limit, if so required.
