The applicant is advised that the application was revived on April 29, 2004. The undersigned has reviewed the applicant’s response and determined the following.
Applicant must submit a written statement attesting to the facts set forth in the application, and confirming that applicant had a bona fide intention to use the mark in commerce on or in connection with the goods or services listed in the application as of the application filing date. 37 C.F.R. §§2.34(a)(2)(i), (a)(3)(i) and (a)(4)(ii). The averment regarding the applicant’s bona fide intention to use the mark as of the filing date was not included. This statement must be dated and signed by a person authorized to sign under 37 C.F.R. §2.33(a) and verified with a notarized affidavit or signed declaration under 37 C.F.R. §2.20.
To satisfy this requirement, applicant may add the following declaration paragraph at the end of its response, properly signed and dated:
The undersigned, being hereby warned that willful false statements and the like so made are punishable by fine or imprisonment, or both, under 18 U.S.C. 1001, and that such willful false statements may jeopardize the validity of the application or any resulting registration, declares that he/she is properly authorized to execute this application on behalf of the applicant; he/she believes the applicant to be the owner of the trademark/service mark sought to be registered, or, if the application is being filed under 15 U.S.C. 1051(b), 1126(d) or 1126(e), he/she believes applicant to be entitled to use such mark in commerce; that the applicant has a bona fide intention to use the mark in commerce on or in connection with the goods or services listed in the application as of the application filing date; that the facts set forth in the application are true and correct; to the best of his/her knowledge and belief no other person, firm, corporation, or association has the right to use the mark in commerce, either in the identical form thereof or in such near resemblance thereto as to be likely, when used on or in connection with the goods/services of such other person, to cause confusion, or to cause mistake, or to deceive; and that all statements made of his/her own knowledge are true and all statements made on information and belief are believed to be true.
