Yes, this response is to confirm that the mark refers to a living individual whose consent is of record. Thank you, please proceed.

United States Trademark Application Serial No. 88335299

 

Dear LaFrance,

 

I am the assigned trademark examining attorney for the above-referenced application.  As of now there is only outstanding issue with the application:

 

1)     Please confirm whether the name(s), portrait(s), and/or signature(s) shown in the mark “LA FRANCE” identifies a living individual(s) “LAFRANCE T SMITH III”.

 

If the changes below are acceptable, I will issue an examiner's amendment and move the application towards publication accordingly:

 

1)     “The name in the mark refers to a living individual whose consent is of record”.

 

Please let me know by phone or email how you would like to proceed or if you have any questions about the application as soon as possible.

 

Kind regards,

 

Elaine Xu
