The pending application(s) below has an earlier filing date or effective filing date than applicant’s application.

Refusal maintained and continued.
The following refusal is maintained and continued:
• Section 2(d) Refusal – Likelihood of Confusion
See id. The refusal will be made final once this application is removed from suspension, unless a new issue arises. See TMEP §716.01.
The arguments against the refusal provided by the applicant are not persuasive at this time. The identification changes do not sufficiently alter the nature of the goods in relation to the cited and pending marks.
Suspension process. The USPTO will periodically check this application to determine if it should remain suspended. See TMEP §716.04. As needed, the trademark examining attorney will issue a letter to applicant to inquire about the status of the reason for the suspension. TMEP §716.05.
No response required. Applicant may file a response, but is not required to do so.
