Possible Confusion with Pending Marks
Action on this application is suspended pending the disposition of potentially-conflicting pending Application Serial Nos. 88289968 and 88289941. 37 C.F.R. section 2.83(c); TMEP sections 716.02(c), 1208.02(c).

The applicant’s election not to submit arguments at this time in no way limits the applicant’s right to address this issue later if a refusal under Section 2(d) issues.
