`
`NFORMALITY
`
`Before the application can be considered further, the following informal issue must be addressed.
`
`RECITATION OF SERVICES
`
`The wording “entertainment, namely television programs featuring sports and mixed martial arts” in the identification of services is
`indefinite and must be clarified because it does not put consumers on notice as to the precise nature of the applicant’s services. (cid:160) TMEP
`
`(cid:160)(cid:160)(cid:160)(cid:160)(cid:160)(cid:160)(cid:160)(cid:160)(cid:160)(cid:160)(cid:160)(cid:160)(cid:160)
`§1402.01.(cid:160) Applicant may substitute the following wording, if accurate:(cid:160)(cid:160)(cid:160)(cid:160)(cid:160)(cid:160)(cid:160)(cid:160)(cid:160)(cid:160)(cid:160)(cid:160)(cid:160)(cid:160)(cid:160)(cid:160)
`(cid:160)(cid:160)(cid:160)(cid:160)(cid:160)(cid:160)
`
`Class 41 – entertainment IN THE NATURE OF television programs featuring competition in the field of sports and mixed martial arts
`
`Applicant must use the common commercial or generic names for the services, be as complete and specific as possible, and avoid the
`use of indefinite words and phrases.(cid:160) If applicant uses indefinite words and phrases such as “services in connection with,” “such as,”
`“including,” “and like services,” “systems,” “products,” “concepts,” or “not limited to,” such wording must be followed by “namely” and a
`list of the specific services identified by their common commercial or generic names.(cid:160) TMEP §§1402.01 and 1402.03(a).

`
`Please note that, while the identification of services may be amended to clarify or limit the services, adding to the services or
`broadening the scope of the services is not permitted.(cid:160) 37 C.F.R. §2.71(a); TMEP §1402.06.(cid:160) Therefore, applicant may not amend the
`
`(cid:160)(cid:160)
