NOTICE OF SUSPENSION
This letter responds to the applicant's communication filed on January 12, 2005.
The applicant was required to clarify the drawing by submitting a standard character claim. The submitted claim is acceptable and has been entered into the record.
The applicant was previously informed of prior pending Application Serial Nos. 75-852429 and 76-551154. Serial No. 76-551154 has been abandoned and no longer poses a potential bar to registration.
Action on this application is suspended pending the disposition of:
- Application Serial No(s). 75-852429
Since applicant's effective filing date is subsequent to the effective filing date of the above-identified application(s), the latter, if and when it registers, may be cited against this application. See 37 C.F.R. §2.83. A copy of information relevant to this pending application(s) was sent previously. The applicant may request that the application be removed from suspension by presenting arguments related to the potential conflict between the relevant applications or other arguments related to the ground for suspension. The applicant's election to present or not to present arguments at this time will not affect the applicant's right to present arguments later.
If the applicant has any questions regarding this Suspension action, please telephone the assigned examining attorney.
