TO AVOID ABANDONMENT, THE OFFICE MUST RECEIVE A PROPER RESPONSE TO THIS OFFICE ACTION WITHIN 6 MONTHS OF THE ISSUE/MAILING DATE.
ISSUE/MAILING DATE: 2/25/2008
THIS IS A FINAL ACTION.
This letter responds to applicant’s communication filed January 31, 2008 in which applicant amended the identification of goods and services and argued against the Section 2(d) refusal. Because applicant has deleted the goods to which the Section 2(d) refusal applied, the refusal is WITHDRAWN. Because the identification of goods and services still requires clarification, the requirement is maintained and MADE FINAL.
Identification of Services – SPECIFIED SERVICES ONLY – MADE FINAL
Applicant classified the services “technical and engineering services, namely providing a database accessible via global computer network featuring a compilation of digital photographs illustrating helicopters for marketing purposes” in International Class 42; however, the correct classification is International Class 35. Applicant must either delete these services or add International Class 35 to the application. 37 C.F.R. §§2.32(a)(7) and 2.85; TMEP §1401.04(b).
Please note that the identification of goods and services in Classes 12, 16, 28, 37, and 41 is acceptable as amended.
If applicant prosecutes this application as a combined, or multiple-class application, then applicant must comply with each of the following for those goods and services based on an intent to use under Trademark Act Section 1(b):
(1) Applicant must list the goods and services by international class with the classes listed in ascending numerical order. TMEP § 1403.01; and
(2) Applicant must submit a filing fee for each international class of goods and services not covered by the fee already paid (current fee information should be confirmed at http://www.uspto.gov). 37 C.F.R. §2.86(a)(2); TMEP §§810 and 1403.01.
If applicant does not respond within six months of the mailing date of this final action, the following services to which the final requirements apply will be deleted from the application by Examiner’s Amendment: “technical and engineering services, namely providing a database accessible via global computer network featuring a compilation of digital photographs illustrating helicopters for marketing purposes.” The application will proceed forward for the remaining goods and services. 15 U.S.C. §1062(b); 37 C.F.R. §2.65(a).
Applicant may respond to this final action by:
(1) submitting a response that fully satisfies all outstanding requirements, if feasible (37 C.F.R. §2.64(a)); and/or
(2) filing an appeal to the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board, with an appeal fee of $100 per class (37 C.F.R. §§2.6(a)(18) and 2.64(a); TMEP §§715.01 and 1501 et seq.; TBMP Chapter 1200).
In certain circumstances, a petition to the Director may be filed to review a final action that is limited to procedural issues, pursuant to 37 C.F.R. §2.63(b)(2). 37 C.F.R. §2.64(a). See 37 C.F.R. §2.146(b), TMEP §1704, and TBMP Chapter 1201.05 for an explanation of petitionable matters. The petition fee is $100. 37 C.F.R. §2.6(a)(15).
