`
`(cid:160)
`

`
`OF THE ISSUE/MAILING DATE BELOW.
`
`(cid:160)I
`
`SSUE/MAILING DATE: 12/25/2012
`
`TEAS PLUS APPLICANTS MUST SUBMIT DOCUMENTS ELECTRONICALLY OR SUBMIT
`FEE:(cid:160) Applicants who filed their application online using the reduced-fee TEAS Plus application must
`continue to submit certain documents online using TEAS, including responses to Office actions.(cid:160) See 37
`C.F.R. §2.23(a)(1).(cid:160) For a complete list of these documents, see TMEP §819.02(b).(cid:160) In addition, such
`applicants must accept correspondence from the Office via e-mail throughout the examination process
`and must maintain a valid e-mail address.(cid:160) 37 C.F.R. §2.23(a)(2); TMEP §§819, 819.02(a).(cid:160) TEAS Plus
`applicants who do not meet these requirements must submit an additional fee of $50 per international
`class of goods and/or services.(cid:160) 37 C.F.R. §2.6(a)(1)(iv); TMEP §819.04.(cid:160) In appropriate situations and
`where all issues can be resolved by amendment, responding by telephone to authorize an examiner’s
`amendment will not incur this additional fee.
`
`(cid:160)T
`
`he referenced application has been reviewed by the assigned trademark examining attorney.(cid:160) Applicant
`must respond timely and completely to the issue(s) below.(cid:160) 15 U.S.C. §1062(b); 37 C.F.R. §§2.62(a),
`2.65(a); TMEP §§711, 718.03.
`
`(cid:160)S
`
`EARCH OF OFFICE’S DATABASE OF MARKS
`
`The trademark examining attorney has searched the Office’s database of registered and pending marks
`and has found no conflicting marks that would bar registration under Trademark Act Section 2(d).(cid:160) TMEP
`§704.02; see 15 U.S.C. §1052(d).
`
`SECTION 2(e)(1) REFUSAL - MERELY DESCRIPTIVE
`
`The examining attorney refuses registration on the Principal Register because the proposed mark merely
`describes the goods.(cid:160) Trademark Act Section 2(e)(1), 15 U.S.C. Section 1052(e)(1); TMEP section 1209 et
`seq.
`
`(cid:160)A
`
` mark is merely descriptive under Trademark Act Section 2(e)(1), 15 U.S.C. 1052(e)(1), if it describes
`an ingredient, quality, characteristic, function, feature, purpose or use of the relevant goods.(cid:160) In re Gyulay,
`820 F.2d 1216, 3 USPQ2d 1009 (Fed. Cir. 1987);(cid:160) In re Bed & Breakfast Registry, 791 F.2d 157, 229
`USPQ 818 (Fed. Cir. 1986); In re MetPath Inc., 223 USPQ 88 (TTAB 1984); In re Bright‑Crest, Ltd.,
`204 USPQ 591 (TTAB 1979); TMEP section 1209.01(b).(cid:160) It is not necessary that a term describe all of
`the purposes, functions, characteristics or features of the goods to be merely descriptive.(cid:160) It is enough if
`the term describes one attribute of the goods.(cid:160) In re H.U.D.D.L.E., 216 USPQ 358 (TTAB 1982); In re
`MBAssociates, 180 USPQ 338 (TTAB 1973).
`
`(cid:160)T
`
`(cid:160)T
`
`he applicant has applied to register the mark “CELL FLASK” for “flasks”.
`
`he term “CELL” is short for a "cellular telephone." American Heritage® Dictionary of the English
`
`Language ©2009 Yahoo! Inc. (copy attached). (cid:160)(cid:160)
`
`The term “FLASK” is defined as, among other things, "a small container, such as a bottle, having a
`narrow neck and usually a cap, especially: a flat, relatively thin container for liquor."(cid:160) American
`Heritage® Dictionary of the English Language ©2009 Yahoo! Inc. (copy attached).(cid:160)
`
`(cid:160)(cid:160)(cid:160)
`(cid:160)
`(cid:160)
`

`
`(cid:160)T
`
`he term “CELL FLASK” is used to describe flasks that are in the shape of or appear to be cell phones. (cid:160)
`The examining attorney refers to the attached excerpts from a representative sampling of webpages
`retrieved from the Internet.
`
`(cid:160)T
`
`he Trademark Trial and Appeal Board has held that materials obtained through computerized text
`searching are competent evidence to show the descriptive use of terms under Trademark Act Section
`2(e)(1), 15 U.S.C. Section 1052(e)(1). (cid:160) In re National Data Corp., 222 USPQ 515, 517 n.3 (TTAB 1984).
`
`(cid:160)T
`
`he applicant's mark merely describes the characteristics of the goods, namely a flask in the shape of a
`cell phone.(cid:160) Consequently, the mark is unregistrable on the Principal Register.
`
`(cid:160)A
`
`lthough the examining attorney has refused registration, the applicant may respond to the refusal to
`register by submitting evidence and arguments in support of registration.
`
`(cid:160)T
`
`RADEMARK ATTORNEY SUGGESTED
`
`(cid:160)B
`
`ecause of the legal technicalities and strict deadlines involved in the USPTO application
`process, applicant may wish to hire a private attorney specializing in trademark matters to represent
`applicant in this process and provide legal advice.(cid:160) Although the undersigned trademark examining
`attorney is permitted to help an applicant understand the contents of an Office action as well as the
`application process in general, no USPTO attorney or staff is permitted to give an applicant legal advice
`
`or statements about an applicant’s legal rights. (cid:160) TMEP §§705.02, 709.06.(cid:160)(cid:160)
`
`For attorney referral information, applicant may consult the American Bar Association’s Consumers’
`Guide to Legal Help at http://www.abanet.org/legalservices/findlegalhelp/home.cfm, an attorney referral
`service of a state or local bar association, or a local telephone directory.(cid:160) The USPTO may not assist an
`applicant in the selection of a private attorney.(cid:160) 37 C.F.R. §2.11.
`
`(cid:160)I
`
`f applicant has questions regarding this Office action, please telephone or e-mail the assigned trademark
`examining attorney.(cid:160) All relevant e-mail communications will be placed in the official application record;
`however, an e-mail communication will not be accepted as a response to this Office action and will not
`extend the deadline for filing a proper response.(cid:160) See 37 C.F.R. §2.191; TMEP §§304.01-.02, 709.04-.05.(cid:160)
`Further, although the trademark examining attorney may provide additional explanation pertaining to the
`refusal(s) and/or requirement(s) in this Office action, the trademark examining attorney may not provide
`legal advice or statements about applicant’s rights. (cid:160) See TMEP §§705.02, 709.06.

`ON 12/25/2012 FOR U.S. APPLICATION SERIAL NO. 85715993

`steps:
`
`(cid:160)(
`
`1)(cid:160) READ THE LETTER by clicking on this link or going to http://tsdr.uspto.gov/, entering your U.S.
`application serial number, and clicking on “Documents.”

`he Office action may not be immediately viewable, to allow for necessary system updates of the
`
`application, but will be available within 24 hours of this e-mail notification.(cid:160)(cid:160)
`(2)(cid:160) RESPOND WITHIN 6 MONTHS (or sooner if specified in the Office action), calculated from
`12/25/2012, using the Trademark Electronic Application System (TEAS) response form located at
`
`http://www.uspto.gov/trademarks/teas/response_forms.jsp.(cid:160)(cid:160)
`
`Do NOT hit “Reply” to this e-mail notification, or otherwise e-mail your response because the
`USPTO does NOT accept e-mails as responses to Office actions.(cid:160)(cid:160)
`(3)(cid:160) QUESTIONS about the contents of the Office action itself should be directed to the trademark
`examining attorney who reviewed your application, identified below.(cid:160)(cid:160)

`
`Failure to file the required response by the applicable response deadline will result in the

`
`PRIVATE COMPANY SOLICITATIONS REGARDING YOUR APPLICATION:(cid:160)
`Private
`companies not associated with the USPTO are using information provided in trademark applications to
`mail or e-mail trademark-related solicitations.(cid:160) These companies often use names that closely resemble
`the USPTO and their solicitations may look like an official government document.(cid:160) Many solicitations
`
`require that you pay “fees.” (cid:160)(cid:160)
`
`Please carefully review all correspondence you receive regarding this application to make sure that you
`are responding to an official document from the USPTO rather than a private company solicitation.(cid:160) All
`official USPTO correspondence will be mailed only from the “United States Patent and Trademark
`Office” in Alexandria, VA; or sent by e-mail from the domain “@uspto.gov.” (cid:160) For more information on
`how
`to
`handle
`private
`company
`solicitations,
`see
`http://www.uspto.gov/trademarks/solicitation_warnings.jsp.
