Dear Mr. Smola,

 

I can issue a priority action regarding the identification so you can add the class. However, the disclaimer can still be handled via examiner’s amendment at this time. Would you authorize me to enter a disclaimer of “IMAGING”?

 

Thanks,

Thomas

Dear Examining Attorney Young,

 

I spoke with the Applicant today and confirmed that the computer software is downloadable and non-downloadable.  Since I need to add Class 42 and pay an additional filing fee, what is the best way to handle this? Do you need to issue a formal Office action so I can respond?

 

I left you a voicemail as well.

 

Sincerely,
Dan

Subject: [EXTERNAL] Trademark Applications - Apteryx Imaging (Serial Nos. 88640947 and 88640965)
Importance: High

 

Hi Mr. Smola,

 

I am the examining attorney assigned to the trademark applications for “Apteryx Imaging” in standard characters and stylized form (Serial Nos. 88640947 and 88640965). I left you a voicemail earlier, but I wanted to reach out via email as well. Each of the applications has the same two issues that must be addressed before the mark proceeds forward. Fortunately, these issues can be resolved with an examiner’s amendment.

 

In particular, the term “IMAGING” must be disclaimed it describes a feature and function of the applicant’s software, sensors, and dental devices, namely, each is used for imaging as indicated in the identification of goods. In addition, the entry for computer software in International Class 9 is too broad because it does not specify that the nature of the software, such as downloadable computer software.

 

With your authorization, I could enter an examiner’s amendment in each application to disclaim the term “IMAGING” and revise the computer software identification to clarify the software is “downloadable computer software”. If you would please review and let me know how you would like to proceed, I would appreciate it. Please feel free to contact me at 571-272-5152 if you have any questions.

 

Thank you,

Thomas
