`Clara Vela, Paralegal Specialist
`
`Applicant filed, on July 23. 2004, a notice of appeal
`
`
`
`and an amendment to the Supplemental Register.
`
`
`
`Because the amendment to the Supplemental Register may
`
`avoid the refusal of registration, the application is
`
`remanded to the Trademark Examining Attorney for
`
`consideration of the amendment to the Supplemental Register.
`
`Action on the appeal is suspended.
`
` The Examining Attorney should continue examination
`
`until final resolution of all new issues arising in the
`
`examination of applicant's amendment to the Supplemental
`
`Register.
`
`
`
` If the Examining Attorney allows this application, the
`
`Board should be so notified.
`
`
`
`
`
` If any issues are made the subject of a final action,1
`
`the Examining Attorney should return this application to the
`
`Board for appropriate action in this appeal.
`
`
`
`
`1In this connection, the amendment to the Supplemental
`Register should be treated as raising a new issue, such that
`any refusal to accept registration on the Supplemental
`Register cannot be made final until applicant has been given
`an opportunity to respond.
