It requires only that evidence submitted after expiry of the time-limit set by the Opposition Division not be the first and only proof of use, but that it be ‘complementary’ or ‘supplementary’ to relevant evidence which was lodged within the time-limit set (judgments in New Yorker SHK Jeans v OHIM, paragraph 44 above, EU:C:2013:484, paragraph 30, and of 29 September 2011 in New Yorker SHK Jeans v OHIM — Vallis K. — Vallis A. (FISHBONE), T‑415/09, EU:T:2011:550, paragraph 33).
