No Response Required
Issue date: October 26, 2019
The application is suspended for the reason(s) 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).
Refusal maintained and continued. The following refusal is maintained and continued:
• Registration is Refused: Likelihood of Confusion with U.S. Registration No. 4562025
See TMEP §713.02.
These refusal(s) and/or requirement(s) 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.
