NOTICE OF SUSPENSION
This letter responds to the communication filed on April 1, 2005. The examining attorney maintains and continues the refusal(s) and/or requirement(s) stated in the previous Office action, if any.
Action on this application is suspended pending receipt of a true copy, a photocopy, a certification, or a certified copy of a foreign registration from the applicant's country of origin. If the registration is in a foreign language, an English translation must be submitted. The true copy, photocopy, certification, or certified copy of the registration should be forwarded to the Examining Attorney as soon as possible. If the foreign application is abandoned, the Examining Attorney should be advised.
Status Check
To check status information, please use either http://tarr.uspto.gov, or call 703-305-8747 (Monday-Friday, 6:30 a.m. to 12 midnight, EST). If additional information regarding the status of an application or registration is required, callers may telephone the Trademark Assistance Center (TAC) at (571) 272-9250 or (800) 786-9199 and request a status check. TAC is open from 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Eastern Standard Time, Monday through Friday, except on holidays.
Copies of Documents
The applicant may view and download any or all documents contained in the electronic file wrapper of all pending trademark applications, as well as many registrations via the Trademark Document Retrieval (TDR) system available online at: http://portal.gov.uspto.report/external/portal/tow. Currently, you can access all pending applications and all Madrid Protocol filings, and also many registrations, via TDR. The USPTO is in the process of converting all remaining registrations into a digital format, to permit future TDR access. This conversion process is expected to take several years.
Effective January 31, 2005 and pursuant to the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2005, Pub. L. 108-447, the following are the fees that will be charged for filing a trademark application:
(1) $325 per international class if filed electronically using the Trademark Electronic Application System (TEAS); or
(2) $375 per international class if filed on paper
These fees will be charged not only when a new application is filed, but also when payments are made to add classes to an existing application. If such payments are submitted with a TEAS response, the fee will be $325 per class, and if such payments are made with a paper response, the fee will be $375 per class.
The new fee requirements will apply to any fees filed on or after January 31, 2005.
