The assigned examining attorney has reviewed the referenced application and determined the following.
TYPE OF MARK
It is unclear from the drawing whether the applicant seeks registration of a mark in standard character format or stylization. The applicant must clarify. If the former, the Applicant must submit the following standard character claim: “The mark is presented in standard characters without claim to any particular font style, size, or color.” 37 C.F.R. §2.52(a).
GOODS/SERVICES/CLASSIFICATION/FEES
The identification of goods is unacceptable as indefinite because “lamps” are in International Class 11, meaning this wording must be deleted from the International Class 9 identification, and may be added as follows: INTERNATIONAL CLASS 11 - LAMPS. If the product is a light emitting diode display component, the applicant must amend to clarify this in Class 9. TMEP §1402.01.
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 or services that are not within the scope of the goods and services recited in the present identification.
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.
SEARCH RESULTS
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. §1052(d). TMEP §704.02.
