Ms. Bergman,

 

As indicated in my voicemail message, I am the trademark examining attorney assigned to the abovementioned applications.  I have completed my review of the files and only clarification regarding the ownership information before I am able to approve the applications for publication.  Specifically, I need to confirm that the owner of the applications is:

 

Tyco Healthcare Group LP, a Delaware Limited Partnership with Covidien, Inc., a Delaware corporation, as the sole member 

 

(Please note that I need confirmation of the ownership information because the entity type in 85646860 is listed as a Sole Proprietorship, not Limited Partnership, which seems like a clerical error, and the state of incorporation of the sole member is missing in all three applications.)

 

I would like to enter the clarification by examiner’s amendment rather than issuing a formal Office action.  If acceptable, I would greatly appreciate your approval Please feel free to email me or phone me at the number listed below.  Thank you in advance for your prompt attention to this matter. 

 

Deirdre
