Therefore, applicant may not amend the identification to include goods that are not within the scope of the goods set forth in the present identification.
If applicant prosecutes this application as a combined, or multiple-class application, then applicant must comply with each of the following for those goods and/or services based on a foreign registration under Trademark Act Section 44(e):
Applicant must list the goods and/or services by international class with the classes listed in ascending numerical order. TMEP § 1403.01; and
