`

`
`
`APPLICANT’S MOTION TO REMAND TO CONSIDER ADDITIONAL EVIDENCE
`
`
`
`Pursuant to 37 C.F.R. § 2.142(d) and TBMP §§ 1207.02, 1209.04, and for good cause,
`
`RIIP, Inc. (“Applicant”) respectfully requests that the above-referenced ex parte appeal for
`
`Application Serial No. 88/010,980 (the “Application”) be remanded to the Examining Attorney
`
`for consideration of the attached additional evidence (Exhibits A-D), which were not previously
`
`submitted and considered.
`
`On January 15, 2021, Applicant filed a Statement of Use with a specimen of use, which
`
`consists of an electronic display from Applicant’s website showing the mark in connection with
`
`the identified goods together with the means for ordering such identified goods. However, the
`
`Examining Attorney issued a Non-Final Action based on specimen refusal on February 10, 2021.
`
`On August 10, 2021, Applicant submitted an argument against the specimen refusal and requested
`
`the Examining Attorney to accept the previously submitted specimen. However, the Examining
`
`Attorney maintained the specimen refusal and issued a Final Action on September 3, 2021.
`
`On March 3, 2022, Applicant submitted an additional specimen of use that consists of an
`
`electronic display/brochure showing use of the mark in connection with the identified goods
`
`together with the means for ordering such identified goods as a Request for Reconsideration after
`
`the Final Action. Also on March 3, 2022, Applicant also filed an ex parte appeal before the
`
`Trademark Trial and Appeal Board. On March 15, 2022, the Examining Attorney denied the
`
`Applicant’s Request for Reconsideration and maintained the specimen refusal.
`
`ACTIVE 64119162v1
`
`

`

`Thereafter, Applicant was able to locate additional specimens of use and corresponded with
`
`the Examining Attorney regarding Applicant’s motion to remand to consider additional evidence,
`
`to which both the Examining Attorney and Applicant agreed by telephone on April 18, 2022. The
`
`additional specimens include extracts from a User Guide and printouts from Online Guide that
`
`were in actual use in commerce at least as early as the filing date of the application (i.e., June 22,
`
`2018) (Exhibits A-B) and prior to the expiration of the deadline for filing a Statement of Use (i.e.,
`
`January 15, 2021) (Exhibits C-D).
`
`Good cause for remand exists because the Examining Attorney and Applicant have agreed
`
`to remand. See TMEP § 1207.02 (“If an applicant or examining attorney wishes to introduce
`
`additional evidence after an appeal has been filed, the applicant or examining attorney may file a
`
`written request with the Board to suspend the appeal and remand the application for further
`
`examination…Examples of circumstances that have been found to constitute good cause for a
`
`remand for additional evidence include…[t]he applicant and examining attorney have agreed to
`
`the remand”).

`
`
`
`

`
`
`
`
`ACTIVE 64119162v1
`
`

`

`Thus, Applicant respectfully requests that the ex parte appeal for the Application be
`
`remanded to the Examining Attorney for consideration of the attached additional evidence
`
`(Exhibits A-D), which were not previously submitted and considered.
`
`
`
`Respectfully submitted,
