Serial Number 76/636878
The assigned trademark examining attorney has reviewed the referenced application and has determined the following.
The Office records have been searched and no similar registered or pending mark has been found that would bar registration under Trademark Act Section 2(d), 15 U.S.C. §1052(d). TMEP §704.02.
Classification
Applicant must correct the classification of the services in the application and amend the application to classify them in International Class 43. 37 C.F.R. §§2.32(a)(7) and 2.85; TMEP §§1401.02(a) and 1401.03(b).
Standard Character Drawing Claim
Applicant must submit the following standard character claim: “The mark is presented in standard character format without claim to any particular font style, size, or color.” 37 C.F.R. §2.52(a).
Drawing Does Not Match Specimen
The mark as depicted on the drawing does not agree with the mark as it appears on the specimen, and clarification is required. 37 C.F.R. §2.51; TMEP §§807.12 and 807.12(a). In the present case, the drawing displays the mark in English characters, and the specimen shows the mark in non-English characters. Applicant may not submit an amended drawing to conform to the display on the specimen because the character of the mark would be materially altered, i.e., the mark on the specimens creates a different commercial impression from the mark on the drawing. 37 C.F.R. §2.72(a); TMEP §§807.12, 807.12(a), 807.14 et seq and 904.09.
Therefore, applicant must do one of the following:
(1) submit a substitute specimen showing use of the mark as it appears on the drawing, with a statement that “the substitute specimen was in use in commerce at least as early as the filing date of the application,” verified with an affidavit or a signed declaration under 37 C.F.R. §2.20; 37 C.F.R. §§2.59(a) and 2.72(a); TMEP §904.09; or
(2) amend the basis to Section 1(b) and satisfy all the requirements for this new basis. TMEP §806.03(c).
