SUSPENSION NOTICE
No Response Required
Issue date: September 04, 2019
This Office action is in response to applicant’s communication filed on August 10, 2019.
The application is suspended for the reason specified below. See 37 C.F.R. §2.67; TMEP §§716 et seq.
The pending application listed below has an earlier filing date or effective filing date than applicant’s application. If the mark in the application below registers, the USPTO may refuse registration of applicant’s mark under Section 2(d) because of a likelihood of confusion with the registered mark. 15 U.S.C. §1052(d); see 37 C.F.R. §2.83; TMEP §§1208.02(c). Action on this application is suspended until the prior-filed application below either registers or abandons. 37 C.F.R. §2.83(c). Information relevant to the application below was sent previously.
- U.S. Application Serial No. 87468287
Refusals and requirements maintained and continued. In the August 10, 2019 response, applicant provided an amended identification of goods. However, the wording is still indefinite and overly broad. In addition, applicant did not respond to the other issues set forth in the May 2, 2019 office action. Therefore, the following refusals and requirements are maintained and continued:
· Prior-filed application may pose bar to registration (as restated above)
· Section 2(d) Refusal – Likelihood of Confusion
· Section 2(e)(2) Refusal – Primarily Geographically Descriptive
· Request for Information about the Goods
· Identification of Goods – Amendment Unacceptable
· Multiple-Class Application Requirements
See id. These refusals and requirements will be made final once this application is removed from suspension, unless a new issue arises. See TMEP §716.01.
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.
