COLOR(S) CLAIMED
(If applicable) |

DESCRIPTION OF THE MARK
(and Color Location, if applicable) |
The mark consists of a shaded circle surrounded by four concentric open ended rings over top of the word CONVERGE. |
ARGUMENT(S) |
In the Office Action dated October 16, 2014, the Examining Attorney refused registration of the applied-for mark on the grounds
that it was likely to be confused with Registration No. 3,253,666 for CONSUMER CREDIT CONVERGENCE. However, the cited mark was assigned to Applicant on March 9, 2015
and the assignment has been recorded with the Assignment Recordation Branch of the USPTO. Now that Applicant claims ownership of Registration No. 3,253,666, the
likelihood of confusion rejection should be withdrawn and the applied-for mark should be approved for publication. |
