`
`TRADEMARK TRIAL AND APPEAL BOARD RULE CHANGES
`
`
`
`The USPTO has issued new rules pertaining to TTAB
`proceedings. Parties are urged to familiarize themselves
`with the new rules.
`
`Among other changes, for any notice of opposition filed on
`or after November 1, 2007, the new rules require an opposer
`to provide proof of service of the notice of opposition
`upon the applicant at the time the notice of opposition is
`filed. Trademark Rule 2.101. (Parallel amendments to
`Trademark Rule 2.111 require a petitioner to include proof
`of service of the petition for cancellation.) Service may
`be made by any of the means set out in Trademark Rule
`
`
`
`2.119(b). A certificate of service is adequate proof of
`service; service by a process server is not necessary. A
`notice of opposition (or petition for cancellation) filed
`without a certificate of service will not be instituted.
`
`The notice of final rulemaking and a chart summarizing the
`changes contained in the notice are available for viewing
`on the TTAB web page:
