IDENTIFICATION OF GOODS/SERVICES REQUIREMENTS
THIS PARTIAL REQUIREMENT APPLIES ONLY TO THE GOODS/SERVICES SPECIFIED THEREIN
Applicant may adopt all or part of the following identification, if accurate:
International Class 9: downloadable educational media, namely, audio files, video recordings and multimedia files featuring information on basketball
International Class 35: Retail store services featuring basketball hoops and basketball accessories, namely, nets, yard guards and lights; On-line retail store services featuring basketball hoops and basketball accessories, namely, nets, yard guards, lights, and downloadable educational media, namely, audio files, video recordings, and multimedia files featuring information on basketball
Applicant may amend the identification to clarify or limit the goods and/or services, but not to broaden or expand the goods and/or services beyond those in the original application or as acceptably amended. See 37 C.F.R. §2.71(a); TMEP §1402.06.
(1) List the goods and/or services by their international class number in consecutive numerical order, starting with the lowest numbered class.
(2) Submit a filing fee for each international class not covered by the fee(s) already paid (view the USPTO’s current fee schedule). The application identifies goods and/or services that are classified in at least two classes; however, applicant submitted a fee sufficient for only one class. Applicant must either submit the filing fees for the classes not covered by the submitted fees or restrict the application to the number of classes covered by the fees already paid.
See 37 C.F.R. §2.86(a); TMEP §§1403.01, 1403.02(c).
