Serial Number 78/235241
The following issues were discussed in communication with Jana L. France, Esq. ((612) 337-2576) per message on May 17, 2004.
As discussed, the applicant must submit evidence that the foreign registration will be in force at the time of issuance of the United States registration. The evidence must consist of a true copy, photocopy, certification or certified copy of the certificate of registration showing that the foreign registration has been renewed. 37 C.F.R. §2.34(a)(3)(iii); TMEP §1004.01(a). Please note that the foreign registration on which this application is based will expire on November 30, 2004. Accordingly, while the German Reg. is still currently in force, it is almost certain that it would expire before the present application actually registers.
If the applicant has any questions or needs assistance in responding to this Office action, please telephone the assigned examining attorney.
