Subject: US App. Ser. Nos. 88328009 and 88328023

 

Dear Attorney Arciniega:

 

I am the attorney assigned to these cases at the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office.

 

There are issues preventing approval of the application for the next step of the registration process. The issue may be resolved by phone or email.

 

1.       Certain wording in the identification of goods in both applications is indefinite. Applicant may amend the identification as stated below, if accurate (amended wording in bold):

 

Class 21:               Plastic beverage bottles sold empty and coffee mugs

 

No amendment is required in the other classes.

 

2.       In Serial No. 88328009, the mark description requires amendment to provide that the white spot is on the left side of the eye (this is consistent with Ser. No. 88328023, as well as other previous applications by the applicant). The mark description may be amended as follows:

 

The mark consists of a fanciful artistic rendition of a human eye, featuring a white spot in the upper left portion of the iris, to suggest reflected light. Above and beneath the eye are curved parallel black and white lines to indicate the top and bottom eyelids.

 

Please let me know if these amendments are acceptable. If so, I can enter these changes via Examiner’s amendment.

 

Please respond to this email or call me (you may leave a message of approval) by close of business on May 20, 2019, and I can make the changes to your application described above. If you do not contact me by then, I will have to issue an Office action requiring these changes.

 

Sincerely,

 

Ryan M. Witkowski
