SUSPENSION NOTICE
No Response Required
Issue date: January 19, 2020
Requirement resolved. The following requirement that was raised previously is satisfied:
See TMEP §713.02.
The application is suspended for the reason specified below. See 37 C.F.R. §2.67; TMEP §§716 et seq.
The pending application below has an earlier filing date or effective filing date than applicant’s application. If the mark in the application below registers, the USPTO may refuse registration of applicant’s mark under Section 2(d) because of a likelihood of confusion with the registered mark. 15 U.S.C. §1052(d); see 37 C.F.R. §2.83; TMEP §§1208.02(c). Action on this application is suspended until the prior-filed application below either registers or abandons. 37 C.F.R. §2.83(c). Information relevant to the application below was sent previously.
- U.S. Application Serial No. 88457468
U.S. Application Serial No. Serial No 88262354 has abandoned and is therefore no longer a potential issue. Applicant also provided arguments against suspending for U.S. Application Serial No. 88457468, but they are not sufficiently persuasive to avoid the need to suspend for this application.
Suspension process. The USPTO will periodically check this application to determine if it should remain suspended. See TMEP §716.04. As needed, the trademark examining attorney will issue a letter to applicant to inquire about the status of the reason for the suspension. TMEP §716.05.
No response required. Applicant may file a response, but is not required to do so.
