`
`isclaimer Required
`
`(cid:160)A
`
`pplicant must disclaim the descriptive wording “SMART SOLUTIONS” apart from the mark as shown because it merely describes an
`ingredient, quality, characteristic, function, feature, purpose, or use of applicant’s goods and/or services. (cid:160) See 15 U.S.C. §§1052(e)(1), 1056(a);
`DuoProSS Meditech Corp. v. Inviro Med. Devices, Ltd., 695 F.3d 1247, 1251, 103 USPQ2d 1753, 1755 (Fed. Cir. 2012) (quoting In re
`Oppedahl & Larson LLP, 373 F.3d 1171, 1173, 71 USPQ2d 1370, 1371 (Fed. Cir. 2004)); In re Steelbuilding.com, 415 F.3d 1293, 1297, 75
`
`USPQ2d 1420, 1421 (Fed. Cir. 2005).(cid:160)(cid:160)
`
`The term “smart” has been held merely descriptive of automated devices. See In re Cryomedical Scis. Inc., 32 USPQ2d 1377, 1378 (TTAB
`1994) (holding SMARTPROBE merely descriptive of disposable cryosurgical probes); see also In re Tower Tech, Inc., 64 USPQ2d 1314,
`1317-18 (TTAB 2002) (holding SMARTTOWER merely descriptive of commercial and industrial cooling towers and accessories therefor, sold
`as a unit). Please also see attached dictionary definition confirming this meaning.
`
`(cid:160)F
`
`urthermore, the word “solutions” has been held merely descriptive when used in connection with computer hardware. In re Box Solutions
`Corp., 79 USPQ2d 1953, 1956 (TTAB 2006); TMEP §1209.03(p). Please also see attached dictionary definition confirming this meaning.
`
`(cid:160)I
`
`n this case, when used in connection with the applicant’s goods and services, the wording SMART SOLUTIONS indicates that the applicant’s
`goods and services pertain to automated devices featuring computer hardware.
`
`(cid:160)A
`
`n applicant may not claim exclusive rights to terms or designs that others may need to use to describe or show their goods or services in the
`marketplace.(cid:160) See Dena Corp. v. Belvedere Int’l, Inc. , 950 F.2d 1555, 1560, 21 USPQ2d 1047, 1051 (Fed. Cir. 1991); In re Aug. Storck KG, 218
`USPQ 823, 825 (TTAB 1983).(cid:160) A disclaimer of unregistrable matter does not affect the appearance of the mark; that is, a disclaimer does not
`physically remove the disclaimed matter from the mark.(cid:160) See Schwarzkopf v. John H. Breck, Inc., 340 F.2d 978, 978, 144 USPQ 433, 433
`
`(C.C.P.A. 1965); TMEP §1213.(cid:160)(cid:160)
`
`If applicant does not provide the required disclaimer, the USPTO may refuse to register the entire mark.(cid:160) See In re Stereotaxis Inc., 429 F.3d
`1039, 1040-41, 77 USPQ2d 1087, 1088-89 (Fed. Cir. 2005); TMEP §1213.01(b).
`
`(cid:160)A
`
`pplicant should submit a disclaimer in the following standardized format:
`
`No claim is made to the exclusive right to use “SMART SOLUTIONS” apart from the mark as shown.
`
`(cid:160)F

`
`(cid:160)I
`
`dentification and Classification of Goods and Services
`
`(cid:160)T
`
`he identification of goods and services requires amendment, as portions of the wording are unacceptable as indefinite. The applicant must
`provide the common commercial name for the goods and/or services or specify the nature of the goods and/or services, as indicated below.
`
`(cid:160)A
`
`lso, the identification of goods and/or services contains parentheses.(cid:160) Generally, parentheses and brackets should not be used in identifications.(cid:160)
`Parenthetical information is permitted in identifications only if it serves to explain or translate the matter immediately preceding the
`
`parenthetical phrase in such a way that it does not affect the clarity of the identification, e.g., “obi (Japanese sash).” (cid:160) TMEP §1402.12.(cid:160)(cid:160)
`
`Therefore, applicant must remove the parentheses from the identification of goods and/or services and incorporate the parenthetical information
`
`into the description.(cid:160)(cid:160)
`
`Finally, the wording “G3” in the identification of goods in Class 009 is a registered mark not owned by applicant. (cid:160) See enclosed copy of U.S.
`Registration No. 2769594.(cid:160) An applicant may not use a registered mark owned by another party in the identification.(cid:160) A registered mark indicates
`origin in one party and cannot be used to define goods or services that originate in a party other than the registrant.(cid:160) TMEP §1402.09; see
`Camloc Fastener Corp. v. Grant, 119 USPQ 264, 264 n.1 (TTAB 1958).
