`REQUEST FOR RECONSIDERATION DENIED
`
`(cid:160)I
`
`(cid:160)(cid:160)
`
`SSUE/MAILING DATE: 3/3/2010
`
`Applicant is requesting reconsideration of a final refusal issued/mailed August 10, 2009.
`
`(cid:160)T
`
`he applicant (1) amended the identification of goods; and (2) argued against the Section 2(d) refusal.(cid:160) No. (1) is acceptable.(cid:160) The applicant’s
`amended identification of goods has been entered into the record.
`
`(cid:160)A
`
`fter careful consideration of the law and facts of the case, the examining attorney must deny the request for reconsideration and adhere to the
`final action as written since no new facts or reasons have been presented that are significant and compelling with regard to the Section 2(d)
`refusal.
`
`(cid:160)R
`
`efusal Under Section 2(d) – Likelihood of Confusion
`
`(cid:160)T
`
`he applicant writes:(cid:160) “The official deadline to renew the cited registration [U.S. Registration No. 1,571,632] passed on December 19, 2009.(cid:160) No
`renewal was filed.(cid:160) Applicant respectfully requests that the examining attorney suspend further action on this application until the end of the
`grace period and the disposition of the cited registration.”
`
`(cid:160)T
`
`he examining attorney cannot suspend this application because the registrant is still in the six month grace period for filing renewal documents.(cid:160)
`“[I]f the examining attorney is ready to issue a denial of a request for reconsideration of a final refusal of registration under §2(d), and the grace
`period for filing a §8 affidavit and/or a §9 renewal application for the cited registration has not passed, the examining attorney must issue the
`denial.” (cid:160) TMEP §716.02(e) [emphasis in original].
`
`(cid:160)A
`
`ccordingly, applicant’s request for reconsideration is denied.(cid:160) The time for appeal runs from the date the final action was issued/mailed.(cid:160)
`37(cid:160)C.F.R. Section 2.64(b); TMEP Section 715.03(c). (cid:160) If applicant has already filed a timely notice of appeal, the application will be forwarded to
`the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board (TTAB).
