The assigned examining attorney has reviewed the referenced application and determined the following:
The examining attorney has searched the Office records and has found no similar registered or pending mark which would bar registration under Trademark Act Section 2(d), 15 U.S.C. Section 1052(d). TMEP section 1105.01.
However, the applicant should note the following informality:
Drawing Unacceptable – Gray Shading
The requirements for a special‑form drawing are as follows.
(1) The drawing must appear in black and white; no color is permitted.
(2) Every line and letter must be black and clear.
(3) The use of gray to indicate shading is unacceptable.
(4) The lining must not be too fine or too close together.
(5) The preferred size of the area in which the mark is displayed is 2½ inches (6.1 cm.) high and 2½ inches (6.1 cm.) wide. It should not be larger than 4 inches (10.3 cm.) high or 4 inches (10.3 cm.) wide.
(6) If the reduction of the mark to the required size renders any details illegible, the applicant may insert a statement in the application to describe the mark and these details.
37 C.F.R. Sections 2.51 and 2.52; TMEP section 807.05. The Office will enforce these drawing requirements strictly. TMEP section 807.
The Office prefers that the drawing be depicted on a separate sheet of smooth, nonshiny, white paper 8 to 8½ inches (20.3 to 21.6 cm.) wide and 11 inches (27.9 cm.) long, and that the sheet contain a heading listing, on separate lines, the applicant's complete name; the applicant's address; the goods or services recited in the application; and, if the application is filed under Section 1(a) of the Act, the dates of first use of the mark and of first use of the mark in commerce; or, if the application is filed under Section 44(d), the priority filing date of the foreign application.

For your convenience, current status and status date information is available, via push button telephone, for all federal trademark registration and application records maintained in the automated Trademark Reporting and Monitoring (TRAM) system.
