Receipt of a certified copy of applicant’s home registration is acknowledged.
On final review for publication, it is noted that the goods listing, although accepted by the prior examining attorney, requires revision since it specifically encompasses goods in two classes. All of the goods listed, if for medical purposes, are properly in Class 10, rather than Class 11, as now designated. Accordingly, applicant must either delete the reference to medical application, or must divide the listing and add International Class 10 to the application.
If the applicant prosecutes this application as a combined, or multiple‑class, application, the applicant must comply with each of the following.
(1) The applicant must list the goods/services by international class with the classes listed in ascending numerical order. TMEP §1403.01.
(2) The applicant must submit a filing fee for each international class of goods/services not covered by the fee already paid. 37 C.F.R. §§2.6(a)(1) and 2.86(a); TMEP §§810.01 and 1403.01. Effective January 1, 2003, the fee for filing a trademark application is $335 for each class. This applies to classes added to pending applications as well as to new applications filed on or after that date.
Please note that, while an application may be amended to clarify or limit the identification, additions to the identification are not permitted. 37 C.F.R. §2.71(a); TMEP §1402.06. Therefore, the applicant may not amend to include any goods that are not within the scope of goods set forth in the present identification.
Further action awaits response to the above.
