Response to Office Action for Post-Registration Matters

To the Commissioner for Trademarks:

The following is submitted for registration number: 1605467 ATLAS

FORM TEXT:

This is in response to the Post-Registration Office Action issued on March 19, 2020.  The Examiner inquired about the owner's legal entity in the combined Section 8 & 9 Declaration submitted on January 22, 2020.  The Section 8 & 9 Declaration identified the legal entity as a corporation, whereas the chain of title in the registration record identifies the legal entity as a limited liability company.

Registrant submits a correction to the legal entity in the Section 8 & 9 declaration.  At the time of filing the Section 8 & 9 Declaration, the actual owner of the registration was indeed Tiffany (NJ) LLC, a Delaware limited liability company.

Registrant also submits that a merger was recorded on June 2, 2008 at Reel 3786, Frame 0665 with the resulting entity as Tiffany (NJ) LLC, a Delaware limited liability company.  However, the USPTO record for this registration was not correctly updated to reflect the current owner.  At the time of filing the Section 8 & 9 Declaration, the USPTO record owner was incorrectly listed as Tiffany (NJ) LLC, a Delaware corporation.  Registrant understands that the USPTO has now correctly updated the registration record.

The filer has elected to bypass the checkbox indicating that a substitute specimen was in use in commerce during the relevant period for filing the 6-year or 10-year Section 8/71.Warning: If you are providing a substitute specimen and do not provide the required statement verifying use, upon review of your response, if it is determined that verification is required, another Office action will issue requiring this statement to complete your response.
