`
`NOTICE OF ALLOWANCE
`ISSUED ON August 13, 1996
`
`FIRST REQ QUEST FOR EXTENSION OF TIME UNDER 37 C.F.R. 2.89
`
`To The Assistant Commissioner for Trademarks:
`
`Applicant, Sterling Commerce, Inc., requests a six-month extension of time to file its
`
`Statement of Use. Applicant believes that it has made valid use of the mark in commerce, as
`
`evidenced by the Statement of Use submitted with this request; however, if the Statement of Use is
`
`found by the Patent & Trademark Office to be fatally defective, Applicant will need additional time
`
`in which to file a new Statement.
`
`Applicant has a continued bona fide intention to use the mark in commerce in connection
`
`with the goods identified in the Notice of Allowance.
`
`This is the first request for an Extension of Time following mailing of the Notice of
`
`Allowance.

`
`RE: Serial Number 74/632651
`
`MARK: GENTRAN:SERVER
`
`The assigned examining attorney has reviewed the referenced application and determined the
`following.
`
`LIKELIHOOD OF CONFUSION - SECTION 21 d[
`The examining attorney refiises registration under Trademark Act Section 2(d), 15 U.S.C. Section
`1052(d), because the applicant's mark, when used on the identified goods, is likely to be confused
`with the registered mark in U.S. Registration No. 1540240. TIVIEP section 1207. See the enclosed
`registration.
`
`The examining attorney must analyze each case in two steps to determine whether there is a
`likelihood of confiision. First, the examining attorney must look at the marks themselves for
`similarities in appearance, sound, connotation and commercial impression.
`In re E. I. DuPont de
`Nemours & C0,, 476 F.2d 1357, 177 USPQ 563 (CCPA 1973). Second, the examining attorney
`must compare the goods to determine if they are related or if the activities surrounding their
`marketing are such that confusion as to origin is likely.
`In re August Storck KG, 218 USPQ 823
`(TTAB 1983); In re International Telephone and Telegraph Corp, 197 USPQ 910 (TTAB 1978);
`Guardian Products Co., v. Scott Paper Co., 200 USPQ 738 (TTAB 1978).
`
`

`
`74/632651
`
`-2-
`
`For the reasons discussed below the examining attorney concludes that confusion as to the source of
`goods is likely between the applicant's mark GENTRANISERVER and the registrant's mark
`GENTRAN.
`
`A. Similarity of the Marks
`The marks share the identical wording GENTRAN. The applicant has fully appropriated the
`registered mark, and it is well settled that the mere addition of a term to a registered mark is not
`sufficient to overcome a likelihood of confiision under Section 2(d). Coca-Cola Bottl
