`
`TO THE COMMISSIONER OF PATENTS AND TRADEMARKS:
`
`RESPONSE TO EXAMINER'S OFFICE
`ACTION DATED DECEMBER 29, 1981
`
`Applicant is in receipt of the Examiner's Office Action
`
`dated December 29,
`
`l98l.
`
`COMMENTS
`
`Regarding Examiner's contention that the mark is primarily
`
`merely a surname, Examiner is respectfully informed that the
`
`burden to prove a mark is primarily merely a surname is on the
`(See In re Harris—Intertype Corporation, 518 F2d. 629
`
`Examiner.
`
`(C.C.P.A., 1975.)
`
`In addition Examiner is informed that Appli-
`
`cant recently had an identical mark, Serial No. 304,935 pub~
`
`lished in the March 30,
`
`l982'Official Gazette (copy enclosed)
`
`and recently registered the mark TIFFANY, Reg. No.
`
`l,l94,332
`
`(copy enclosed).
`
`No refusals to register or other communica-
`
`tions were received by Applicant with respect to the two-above-
`
`mentioned applications.
`
`Applicant believes it reasonable that the inconsistency
`
`between the instant application and the two abovevmentioned
`
`applications be resolved in favor of Applicant. Applicant,
`
`therefore, requests the refusal to register be withdrawn.
`
`AMENDMENTS
`
`Applicant requests the following statement be inserted in
