OFFICE ACTION (OFFICIAL LETTER) ABOUT APPLICANT’S TRADEMARK APPLICATION

NOTICE:  APPLICATION ABANDONED

ISSUE/MAILING DATE: 5/29/2019

The above-referenced application is abandoned because applicant failed to file a complete response to the Final Office action dated October 1, 2018.  See 15 U.S.C. §1062(b); 37 C.F.R. §2.65(a); TMEP §§718.02, 718.03, 718.03(b).  That is, applicant’s October 26, 2018, request for reconsideration was not legally sufficient for the reasons specified below.

Applicant’s response is incomplete because it failed to resolve the outstanding issue in the final Office action, it did not raise a new issue or provide any new or compelling evidence with regard to the outstanding issue, and applicant’s analysis and arguments were not persuasive nor did they shed new light on the issue.  In addition, the USPTO has not received a timely filed notice of appeal and there is no time remaining in the response period. 

Applicant may respond by filing a petition to the Director to request a reversal of the decision to abandon the application.  TMEP §§715.03(a)(ii)(D), 718.03(b), 1713.01-.02; see 37 C.F.R. §2.146(a)(3).  The petition must be filed within two months of the date of issuance of this letter and may be filed online at http://www.gov.uspto.report/trademarks/teas/petition_forms.jsp.  See 37 C.F.R. §2.146(d); TMEP §1705.04.

WARNING

PRIVATE COMPANY SOLICITATIONS REGARDING YOUR APPLICATION:  Private companies not associated with the USPTO are using information provided in trademark applications to mail or e-mail trademark-related solicitations.  These companies often use names that closely resemble the USPTO and their solicitations may look like an official government document.  Many solicitations require that you pay “fees.” 

Please carefully review all correspondence you receive regarding this application to make sure that you are responding to an official document from the USPTO rather than a private company solicitation.  All official USPTO correspondence will be mailed only from the “United States Patent and Trademark Office” in Alexandria, VA; or sent by e-mail from the domain “@uspto.gov.”  For more information on how to handle private company solicitations, see http://www.gov.uspto.report/trademarks/solicitation_warnings.jsp.
