EXAMINER’S AMENDMENT

 

 

Issue date:  March 29, 2021

 

The referenced application has been reviewed by the assigned trademark examining attorney. 

 

USPTO database searched. The trademark examining attorney has searched the USPTO’s database of registered and pending marks and has found no similar registered marks that would bar registration under Trademark Act Section 2(d). TMEP §704.02; see 15 U.S.C. §1052(d). However, a mark in a prior-filed pending application may present a bar to registration of applicant’s mark. See attached Application Serial No. 87819877. Immediately following this Examiner’s Amendment, applicant will receive a Notice of Suspension based on this prior-pending application.

 

Application has been amended as shown below.  As agreed to by Jeffrey S. Becker, attorney for applicant, on March 29, 2021, the examining attorney has amended the application as shown below.  Please notify the examining attorney immediately of any objections.  TMEP §707.  Otherwise, no response is required.  Id.  In addition, applicant is advised that amendments to the goods and/or services are permitted only if they clarify or limit them; amendments that add to or broaden the scope of the goods and/or services are not permitted.  37 C.F.R. §2.71(a).

 

DESCRIPTION OF MARK AMENDED

 

The following description of the mark is added to the record:

 

The mark consists of a stylized block letter “M” below two chevrons that point down. The chevrons are vertically aligned with the V-shaped part of the letter “M” and with each other.

Direct questions about navigating USPTO electronic forms, the USPTO website, the application process, the status of your application, and/or whether there are outstanding deadlines or documents related to your file to the Trademark Assistance Center (TAC).

 

 

 

GENERAL GUIDANCE

·         Check the status of your application periodically in the Trademark Status & Document Retrieval (TSDR) database to avoid missing critical deadlines.

 

·         Update your correspondence email address, if needed, to ensure you receive important USPTO notices about your application.

 

·         Beware of misleading notices sent by private companies about your application.  Private companies not associated with the USPTO use public information available in trademark registrations to mail and email trademark-related offers and notices – most of which require fees.  All official USPTO correspondence will only be emailed from the domain “@uspto.gov.”
