Applicant’s response of April 15, 2019 is noted. The applicant’s amended identification is noted and entered into the record. While the identification requirement is maintained, the amendment does obviate the section 2(d) refusals. Accordingly, the section 2(d) refusals are WITHDRAWN.
Based on applicant’s arguments and amendments, the following potential cites based on prior pending applications are WITHDRAWN: Application Serial Nos. 87-889406, 87-889421 and 88-117187
The trademark examining attorney is suspending action on the application for the reason(s) stated below. See 37 C.F.R. §2.67; TMEP §§716 et seq.
The effective filing date of the pending application(s) identified below precedes the filing date of applicant’s application. If the mark in the referenced application(s) registers, applicant’s mark may be refused registration under Section 2(d) because of a likelihood of confusion with that registered mark(s). See 15 U.S.C. §1052(d); 37 C.F.R. §2.83; TMEP §§1208 et seq. Therefore, action on this application is suspended until the earlier-filed referenced application(s) is either registered or abandoned. 37 C.F.R. §2.83(c). A copy of information relevant to this referenced application(s) was sent previously.

REFUSAL(S)/REQUIREMENT(S) CONTINUED AND MAINTAINED: The following refusal(s)/requirement(s) is/are continued and maintained: The identification of services requirement is MAINTAINED as discussed in the Office Action dated February 13, 2019. The applicant’s amendment to the identification of services are deletions which address section 2(d) refusals or potential refusals only and do not address the identification issues raised in said Office Action.
The USPTO will periodically conduct a status check of the application to determine whether suspension remains appropriate, and the trademark examining attorney will issue as needed an inquiry letter to applicant regarding the status of the matter on which suspension is based. TMEP §§716.04, 716.05. Applicant will be notified when suspension is no longer appropriate. See TMEP §716.04.
