Issue date: October 02, 2019
The examining attorney has carefully reviewed the applicant’s response to the first Office action containing amendments and arguments in favor of registration. The examining attorney has determined the following.
The application is suspended for the reason specified below. See 37 C.F.R. §2.67; TMEP §§716 et seq.
Application suspended until submission of foreign registration or proof that foreign registration was renewed. Applicant is required to provide a copy of a foreign registration from applicant’s country of origin; the foreign registration must be valid when the U.S. registration issues. 15 U.S.C. §1126(e); 37 C.F.R. §2.34(a)(3)(ii)-(iii); TMEP §§1004, 1004.01(a). Action on the application is suspended until the USPTO receives a copy of such foreign registration or proof that the foreign registration was renewed. TMEP §§716.02(b), 1003.04. Applicant must also provide an English translation if the foreign registration or renewal document is not in English. 37 C.F.R. §2.34(a)(3)(ii)-(iii).
If the foreign application abandons or the foreign registration is not renewed, applicant should promptly notify the trademark examining attorney. See TMEP §§1003.08, 1004.01(a). In such case, applicant may amend the application to rely on another filing basis, if appropriate, and will retain the priority filing date, if applicable. TMEP §§1003.08, 1004.01(a).

No response required. Applicant may file a response, but is not required to do so.
