Subject: Notice of Design Search Code and Pseudo Mark for Serial Number: 77566197

ATTORNEY REFERENCE NUMBER:TSox-002 TM


The USPTO may assign design search codes and/or pseudo marks, as appropriate, to new applications and renewed registrations to assist in searching the USPTO database for conflicting marks.  They have no legal significance and will not appear on the registration certificate.

DESIGN SEARCH CODES are numerical codes assigned to figurative, non-textual elements found in marks.  For example, if your mark contains the design of a flower, design search code 05.05 would be assigned to your application.  Design search codes are described on Internet Web page http://www.uspto.gov/tmdb/dscm/index.html.

A PSEUDO MARK may be assigned to marks that include words, numbers, compound words, symbols, or acronyms that can have alternative spellings or meanings.  For example, if the mark comprises the words 'YOU ARE' surrounded by a design of a box, the pseudo mark field in the USPTO database would display the mark as 'YOU ARE SQUARE'.  A mark filed as 'URGR8' would receive a pseudo mark of 'YOU ARE GREAT'.

Response to this notice is not required; however, to suggest additions or changes to the design search code(s) or pseudo mark assigned to your mark, please e-mail TMDesignCodeComments@USPTO.GOV.  You must reference your application serial number within your request.  The USPTO will review the proposal and update the record, if appropriate.  For questions, please call 1-800-786-9199 to speak to a Customer Service representative.

The USPTO will not send any further response to your e-mail.  Check TESS in approximately two weeks to see if the requested changes have been entered.  Requests deemed unnecessary or inappropriate will not be entered.
