However, the examining attorney will conduct periodic status checks and may issue inquiries at 6 month intervals from the mailing date of this notice. TMEP §716.05. If a status inquiry Office action issues, applicant will have 6 months from the mailing or e-mailing date of the status inquiry to respond. 15 U.S.C. §1062(b); 37 C.F.R. §2.62.
MAILING/E-MAILING DATE INFORMATION: If the mailing or e-mailing date of this Office action does not appear above, this information can be obtained by visiting the USPTO website at http://tarr.gov.uspto.report/, inserting the application serial number, and viewing the prosecution history for the mailing date of the most recently issued Office communication.
Action on this application is suspended pending receipt of a true copy, a photocopy, a certification, or a certified copy of a foreign registration from the applicant's country of origin. If the registration is in a foreign language, an English translation must be submitted. The true copy, photocopy, certification, or certified copy of the registration should be forwarded to the Examining Attorney as soon as possible. If the foreign application is abandoned, the Examining Attorney should be advised.
Informational: Standard Character Drawing- Advisory
The drawing of the mark must be a “substantially exact representation” of the mark as it appears in the foreign registration. See United Rum Merchants Ltd. v. Distillers Corp. (S.A.) Ltd., 9 USPQ2d 1481 (TTAB 1988); 37 C.F.R. §2.51; TMEP §§807.03(f), 807.14 and 1011.01. Specifically, if the U.S. application contains a standard character claim, the foreign registration should also include such a claim.
If the foreign registration does not include a standard character claim, applicant must either (1) submit a statement that “under the law of the country of origin, the foreign registration includes a standard character claim,” or (2) delete the standard character claim from the U.S. application. 37 C.F.R. §2.52.
If the standard character claim is deleted from the U.S. application, then the drawing of the mark will be considered a “special form drawing.” 37 C.F.R. §2.52.
