SUMMARY OF ISSUES:

Requirement for Acceptable Identification of Goods

Requirement for Signed Declaration and Verification

REQUIREMENT FOR ACCEPTABLE IDENTIFICATION/CLASSIFICATION OF GOODS

Some of the wording in the recitation of goods must be clarified because it is indefinite and/or too broad.

SeeTMEP 1402.01.

The USPTO has the discretion to determine the degree of particularity needed to clearly identify goods

and/or services covered by a mark. In re Fiat Grp. Mktg. & Corp. Commcns S.p.A, 109 USPQ2d 1593,

1597 (TTAB 2014) (citing In re Omega SA, 494 F.3d 1362, 1365, 83 USPQ2d 1541, 1543-44 (Fed. Cir.

2007)). Accordingly, the USPTO requires the description of goods and/or services in a U.S. application

to be specific, definite, clear, accurate, and concise. TMEP 1402.01;see In re Fiat Grp. Mktg. & Corp.

Commcns S.p.A, 109 USPQ2d at 1597-98; Cal. Spray-Chem. Corp. v. Osmose Wood Pres. Co. of Am. ,

transmitting, manipulating, and reviewing text, data, image, and audio files}.

The wording electrical and electronic connectors, couplers, wires, cables, chargers, docks, docking

electric wires, electrical and electronic cables, battery chargers, docks being power supplies,

companies notassociated with the USPTO are using information provided in trademark applications to

official USPTO correspondence will be mailed only from the United States Patent and Trademark
