ISSUE/MAILING DATE: 9/7/2007
The assigned examining attorney has reviewed the referenced application and determined the following.
Search Results
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.
Recitation of Services
The recitation of services is unacceptable as indefinite because it is too broad. The applicant must amend the identification to specify the common commercial names of the services, which will determine their correct classification. TMEP §1402.11. For example, the following identification and classification is acceptable, if accurate:
Class 35: energy usage management.
For assistance with identifying and classifying goods and/or services in trademark applications, please see the online searchable Manual of Acceptable Identifications of Goods and Services at http://tess2.gov.uspto.report/netahtml/tidm.html.
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 services that are not within the scope of the services recited in the present identification.
