The assigned examining attorney has reviewed the statement of use filed on October 25, 2004 and has determined the following:
Because applicant has set forth a date of first use of the mark in commerce that is later than the date the declaration was signed, applicant must do one of the following to clarify the record:
(1) If the date of first use in commerce is incorrect, then applicant must provide the correct date of first use in commerce, verified by a notarized affidavit or a signed declaration under 37 C.F.R. §2.20. 37 C.F.R. §2.71(c); TMEP §903.05.
(2) If the date of the signature is incorrect, the applicant must specify the correct date.
(3) If the date of first use in commerce is correct, then applicant had not used the mark in commerce before signing the declaration. In this case, applicant must provide a new statement of the date of first use in commerce, verified by a notarized affidavit or a signed declaration under 37 C.F.R. §2.20.
