This Office action supersedes any previous Office action issued in connection with this application.
In addition to all of the substantive issues and informalities raised in the Office Action dated November 27, 2006, which are incorporated by reference herein, applicant must also correct the following issue. Please note that applicant must respond to all issues raised in this Office Action, as well as the previous Office Action of November 27, 2006, within six (6) months of the mailing date of this letter. If applicant does not respond within this time limit, the application will be abandoned.
Applicant must submit the following standard character claim: “The mark consists of standard characters without claim to any particular font style, size, or color.” 37 C.F.R. §2.52(a); TMEP §807.03(a).
Effective November 2, 2003, Trademark Rule 2.52, 37 C.F.R. § 2.52, was amended to replace “typed” drawings with “standard character” drawings. In a standard character drawing, the mark on the drawing consists of only words, letters or numbers, but does not include any designs or claims as to particular font style, size, or color. A registration for a mark using a standard character drawing affords protection not only for the standard character version of the mark, but for any possible renderings of the mark, as long as those renderings do not contain any design elements; i.e., a registered standard character drawing of the mark gives protection for display on the specimens in any lettering style. 37 C.F.R. §2.52; Exam Guide 01-03, section I; See TMEP §§807.03(a) and TMEP §807.03(g).
Miscellany
