Office Action (Official Letter) About Applicant’s Trademark Application
NONFINAL OFFICE
ACTION
International Registration No. 1526478
Notice of Provisional Full
Refusal
Deadline for responding. The USPTO must receive applicant’s response within
six months of the “date on which the notification was sent to WIPO (mailing date)” located on the WIPO cover letter, or the U.S. application will be abandoned. To
confirm the mailing date, go to the USPTO’s Trademark Status and Document Retrieval (TSDR) database, select “US Serial, Registration, or Reference No.,” enter the U.S. application serial number in the blank text box, and click on “Documents.” The mailing
date used to calculate the response deadline is the “Create/Mail Date” of the “IB-1rst Refusal Note.”
Respond to this Office action using the USPTO’s Trademark Electronic Application System (TEAS). A link to the
appropriate TEAS response form appears at the end of this Office action.
Discussion of provisional full refusal. This is a provisional full refusal of the request for extension of protection to the United States of the international registration, known in the United States as a U.S. application based on
Trademark Act Section 66(a). See 15 U.S.C. §§1141f(a), 1141h(c).
The referenced application has been reviewed by the assigned trademark examining
attorney. Applicant must respond timely and completely to the issue(s) below. 15 U.S.C. §1062(b); 37 C.F.R. §§2.62(a), 2.65(a);
TMEP §§711, 718.03.
SUMMARY OF ISSUES:
- Search on Merits Deferred
- Significance of Wording
- Description of Mark
- Identification of Goods and Recitation of Services
- United States Counsel Required
Search on Merits Deferred
A search of the USPTO database of
registered and pending marks for potentially conflicting marksis deferred because applicant’s goods and/or services are so indefinite that a proper search cannot be conducted. TMEP §704.02. Until applicant submits a sufficiently definite identification of goods and/or services as required elsewhere in this Office
action, action on the merits is deferred with respect to likelihood of confusion under Trademark Act Section 2(d). TMEP §704.02; see 15 U.S.C.
§1052(d).
Significance of Wording
To permit proper examination of the application, applicant
must explain whether the wording “NEURON” in the mark has any significance in the electronics, automotive, scientific, software, computer, games/toys/playthings, telecommunications,
advertising/marketing, legal, travel and/or clothing trades or industries or as applied to applicant’s goods and/or services, or if such wording is a “term of art” within applicant’s
industry. See 37 C.F.R. §2.61(b); TMEP §814. Failure to comply with a request for information is grounds for refusing
registration. In re Harley, 119 USPQ2d 1755, 1757-58 (TTAB 2016); TMEP §814.
Description of Mark
Applicant must submit an amended description of the
mark because the current one uses broad, vague language that does not accurately describe the mark. 37 C.F.R. §2.37; see TMEP §§808.01,
808.02. Descriptions must be accurate and identify all the literal and design elements in the mark. See 37 C.F.R. §2.37; TMEP §808.02. In this case, the description is vague because it makes conclusory statements about the word “neuron,” rather
than describing the elements of the mark itself.
The following description is suggested, if accurate:
- The mark consists of the stylized wording “NEURON,” where the letter “O” is connected to
two smaller circles above it, the three circles resembling an atom.
Identification of Goods and Recitation of Services
The identification of goods and/or services contains
parentheses and brackets. Generally, applicants should not use parentheses and brackets in identifications in their applications so as to avoid
confusion with the USPTO’s practice of using parentheses and brackets in registrations to indicate goods and/or services that have been deleted from registrations or in an affidavit of
incontestability to indicate goods and/or services not claimed. See TMEP §1402.12. The only exception is that
parenthetical information is permitted in identifications in an application if it serves to explain or translate the matter immediately preceding the parenthetical phrase in such a way that it does
not affect the clarity or scope of the identification, e.g., “fried tofu pieces (abura-age).” Id.
Therefore, applicant must remove the parentheses and brackets from the identification and incorporate any
parenthetical or bracketed information into the description of the goods and/or services.
Also, the identification for software in
International Class 9 is indefinite and too broad and must be clarified to specify (1) the purpose or function of the software and its content or field of use, if content- or field- specific; and (2)
whether its format is downloadable, recorded, or online non-downloadable. See 37 C.F.R. §2.32(a)(6); TMEP
§§1402.03(d), 1402.11(a). Downloadable and recorded goods are in International Class 9, whereas providing their temporary, online
non-downloadable use is a service in International Class 42. See TMEP §1402.03(d).
The USPTO requires such specificity in order for a trademark examining attorney to examine the application
properly and make appropriate decisions concerning possible conflicts between the applicant’s mark and other marks. See In re N.A.D. Inc., 57
USPQ2d 1872, 1874 (TTAB 2000); TMEP §1402.03(d).
Further, the wording “clothes; clothing” in the
identification of goods in International Class 25 is indefinite and too broad and must be clarified because the word does not make clear the nature of the goods and could identify goods in more than
one international class. See 37 C.F.R. §2.32(a)(6); TMEP §§1402.01, 1402.03, 1904.02(c), (c)(ii).
The international classification of goods in applications filed under Trademark
Act Section 66(a) cannot be changed from the classification the International Bureau of the World Intellectual Property Organization assigned to the goods in the corresponding international
registration. 37 C.F.R. §2.85(d); TMEP §1401.03(d). Therefore, although clothing can be classified in international classes other
than International Class 25 (e.g., International Classes 9, 10, and 18), any modification to the identification must identify goods in International Class 25 only, the class specified in the
application for such goods. See TMEP §1904.02(c)(ii).
Examples of acceptable identifications for clothing and/or apparel in International Class 25 include the
following: “shirts,” “shorts,” “pants,” “coats,” “dresses,” “skirts,” and “socks.” Applicant may also amend the identification by
inserting the word “namely,” after “clothe” or “clothing” and then listing the specific types of clothing items.
Applicant must rewrite the identification of goods and recitation of services in its entirety because of the nature and extent of the amendment. 37 C.F.R.
§2.74(a).
Otherwise, the identification of goods
and recitation of services is indefinite and must be clarified because applicant must better define and describe the nature and/or function of its: computer software, computing and electronic
equipment; vehicular goods; leather goods; articles of apparel; games, toys and playthings; advertising, marketing and commercial-related services; telecommunication services; transportation-related
services; computer, technology and scientific-related services; and legal, security and social networking-related services. See 37 C.F.R. §2.32(a)(6); TMEP
§1402.01. Applicant must amend the identification to specify the common commercial or generic name of the goods and services.
See TMEP §1402.01. If the goods and services have no common commercial or generic name, applicant must describe the product, its main purpose,
and its intended uses. See id.
Finally, applicant’s proposed wording contains numerous
repetitive, duplicative terms and phrases – for such wording, the examining attorney has suggested the deletion by means of strikethrough.
Applicant may adopt the following wording, if accurate (suggested edits in bold and strikethrough):
