EXAMINER’S AMENDMENT

 

 

Issue date:  November 15, 2019

 

 

Introduction

 

This examiners amendment is in response to applicant’s petition to revive filed on October 30, 2019.

 

In a previous Office action dated February 14, 2019, the applicant was required to satisfy the following requirements:  provide the application verification statements and date of signing, provide a mark description, and provide the foreign registration for Section 44(e) registration.

 

Based on applicant’s response, the trademark examining attorney notes that all requirements have been satisfied.  See TMEP §§713.02, 714.04. 

 

APPLICATION HAS BEEN AMENDED:  In accordance with the authorization granted by Mr. Timothy C. Dunn, Esq. on November 15, 2019, the trademark examining attorney has amended the application as indicated below.  Please advise the undersigned immediately of any objections.  Otherwise, no response is necessary.  TMEP §707.  Any amendments to the identification of goods and/or services may clarify or limit the goods and/or services, but may not add to or broaden the scope of the goods and/or services.  37 C.F.R. §2.71(a); see TMEP §§1402.06 et seq.

 

Unnecessary Disclaimer

 

The petition to revive includes a disclaimer of the following matter in the applied-for mark:  “MANDY.”  An applicant may voluntarily disclaim matter in a mark regardless of whether the matter is registrable.  TMEP §1213.01(c); see 15 U.S.C. §1056(a).  However, a disclaimer of this matter is not required. Applicant has therefore requested to withdraw this disclaimer from the application.

Direct questions about navigating USPTO electronic forms, the USPTO website, the application process, the status of your application, and/or whether there are outstanding deadlines or documents related to your file to the Trademark Assistance Center (TAC).

 

 

 

GENERAL GUIDANCE

·         Check the status of your application periodically in the Trademark Status & Document Retrieval (TSDR) database to avoid missing critical deadlines.

 

·         Update your correspondence email address, if needed, to ensure you receive important USPTO notices about your application.

 

·         Beware of misleading notices sent by private companies about your application.  Private companies not associated with the USPTO use public information available in trademark registrations to mail and email trademark-related offers and notices – most of which require fees.  All official USPTO correspondence will only be emailed from the domain “@uspto.gov.”
