FORM TEXT

Mark:  Misc. Design (Catalog Cover in Robin’s Egg Blue)

Reg. No.  2416794

 

This is in response to the Post-Registration Office Action dated March 27, 2019, refusing the Section 7 Amendment filed on December 17, 2018.

Remarks

The Post-Registration Office Action refused the Section 7 Amendment on the ground that it did not include a request to delete the lining statement such that the additional statements in the registration agree with the amended mark. Registrant requests that the following lining and stippling statement be removed “The drawing is lined for the color blue, and color is a feature of the mark.”

The Office Action further requested a current specimen showing use of the mark. Registrant submits that Under TMEP Section 1609.02 (e) no specimen is required as Registrant is merely substituting a color drawing for a legally equivalent black-and-white drawing and is not amending the mark.

With the above, Registrant respectfully requests that the Section 7 Amendment be accepted.

If any fees are due, please charge our deposit account #230825.
