Examiners Amendment

United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO)

Office Action (Official Letter) About Applicant’s Trademark Application

NO-CALL EXAMINER’S AMENDMENT

Issue date:  December 16, 2019

Application has been amended as shown below.  The trademark examining attorney is amending the application as follows.  No prior approval or authorization from applicant or applicant’s attorney is required.  TMEP §707.02.

PARTIAL ABANDONMENT – APPLICATION HAS BEEN AMENDED

The above-referenced application is partially abandoned because applicant failed to file a response to the Office action dated June 4, 2019.  See 15 U.S.C. §1062(b); 37 C.F.R. §2.65(a)-(a)(1); TMEP §718.02(a).  To avoid partial abandonment, a response was due within six months from the date on which the USPTO sent the previous Office action; however, no response was received within this time period.  See TMEP §711.

The outstanding Office action included a refusal that applied to only a portion of the application; therefore, only that portion of the application is abandoned.  See 15 U.S.C. §1062(b); 37 C.F.R. §2.65(a)(1); TMEP §718.02(a).

The portion of the identification that was the subject of the refusal will be deleted from the application.

• International Class 034

The application will proceed with the following classes only:

• International Class 030
• International Class 032

If applicant’s failure to respond was unintentional, applicant may file a petition to the Director to revive the portion of the application that abandoned.  37 C.F.R. §2.66(a); TMEP §§718.02(a), 1714.01(d).  The petition must be filed within two months of the date of issuance of this letter and may be filed online via the Trademark Electronic Application System (TEAS) with a $100 fee.  See 37 C.F.R. §§2.6(a)(15)(ii), 2.66(a)(1); TMEP §§718.02(a), 1714.01(a), (d).  Once the petition is filed, please notify the Petitions Office at 571-272-8950 that a request to revive a partially-abandoned application was filed, indicating the application serial number.

Direct questions about navigating USPTO electronic forms, the USPTO website, the application process, the status of your application, and/or whether there are outstanding deadlines or documents related to your file to the Trademark Assistance Center (TAC).

GENERAL GUIDANCE

·         Check the status of your application periodically in the Trademark Status & Document Retrieval (TSDR) database to avoid missing critical deadlines.

·         Update your correspondence email address, if needed, to ensure you receive important USPTO notices about your application.

·         Beware of misleading notices sent by private companies about your application.  Private companies not associated with the USPTO use public information available in trademark registrations to mail and email trademark-related offers and notices – most of which require fees.  All official USPTO correspondence will only be emailed from the domain “@uspto.gov.”
