Response to Office Action for Post-Registration Matters

To the Commissioner for Trademarks:

The following is submitted for registration number. 625785

FORM INFORMATION

In response to the Post-Registration Office Action issued on May 19 2016, the Registrant wishes to clarify the owner information.  The USPTO records shows the correct chain of title with the owner of the registration being VOITH GMBH (a German Limited Liability Company).  The correct entity information is shown in the Assigment Branch records at reel/frame 5742/0506.  The Section 8&9 Renewal application incorrectly listed the owner as a corporation.  This was a mistake at the time of filing.

Registrant hopes that this explanation helps to clarify matters and that the Section 8&9 Renewal application can be accepted.

The signatory has confirmed that he/she is an attorney who is a member in good standing of the bar of the highest court of a U.S. state, which includes the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and other federal territories and possessions; and he/she is currently the trademark owner's/holder's attorney or an associate thereof; and to the best of his/her knowledge, if prior to his/her appointment another U.S. attorney or a Canadian attorney/agent not currently associated with his/her company/firm previously represented the trademark owner/holder in this matter: (1) the trademark owner has filed or is concurrently filing a signed revocation of or substitute power of attorney with the USPTO; (2) the USPTO has granted the request of the prior representative to withdraw; (3) the trademark owner has filed a power of attorney appointing him/her in this matter; or (4) the trademark owner's/holder's appointed U.S. attorney or Canadian attorney/agent has filed a power of attorney appointing him/her as an associate attorney in this matter.
