Subject: USPTO Correspondence Ser. Nos. 88428318, 88428308, 88428311: NEW WAVE; Ser. Nos. 88428304, 88428307: NEW WAVE FOODS; etc.

 

Good morning Allison,

 

I am the trademark examining attorney assigned to the below-referenced cases.  I have completed my initial examination and I am hoping we can resolve some issues via Examiner’s Amendments to move these application onto publication.  They are pretty simple edits that need to be done on the identification of goods.

 

For the following applications, we need to amend the identification slightly to identify that the sustainable seafood is not live.  I know the applicant received a previous registration that allowed them this wording, but this wording is actually unacceptable because it is too broad and could identify live sustainable seafood in Class 031.  Thus, we need to add the language that the seafood is not live.

 

Ser. Nos. 88428318, 88428308, 88428311, 88428304, 88428307, 88428312, 88428315, 88428316

 

We need to amend the IDs entry of “sustainable seafood” to “sustainable seafood, not live”.  The ID would remain unchanged after this entry. 

 

For Ser. Nos. 88428304, 88428307: NEW WAVE FOODS

 

Here, along with the ID amendment, we need to add a disclaimer statement for the wording “FOODS” because it is generic of applicant’s goods.

 

For Ser. No. 88428312, NEW WAVE SHRIMP,

 

Along with the above, ID amendment, we need to add a disclaimer statement for the wording “SHRIMP” because it is generic of applicant’s goods.

 

 

For Ser. No. 88428315, NEW WAVE LOBSTER

 

Along, with the above, ID amendment, we need to add a disclaimer statement for the wording “LOBSTER” because it is generic of applicant’s goods.

 

For Ser. No. 88428316, NEW WAVE CRAB

 

Along, with the above, ID amendment, we need to add a disclaimer statement for the wording “CRAB” because it is generic of applicant’s goods.

 

If these amendments are acceptable, please let me know and I can move forth with Examiner’s Amendments adding them to the record.  Because of Office deadlines, I do need to hear back from you by August 5, otherwise, I will issue Office Actions, requiring the above.

 

If you have any questions, please let me know.

 

Best,

 

Bridget
