`SUMMARY OF ISSUES:
`IDENTIFICATION OF GOODS & SERVICES

`
`IDENTIFICATION OF GOODS & SERVICES

` 
` 
`

`

`In a Trademark Act Section 66(a) application, classification of goods/services may not be changed from that assigned by the International Bureau
`of the World Intellectual Property Organization.  37 C.F.R. §2.85(d); TMEP §§1401.03(d), 1904.02(b).  Additionally, classes may not be added
`
`or services transferred from one class to another in a multiple-class Section 66(a) application.  37 C.F.R. §2.85(d); TMEP §1401.03(d).  
`
`The USPTO has the discretion to determine the degree of particularity needed to clearly identify services covered by a mark.   In re Fiat Grp.
`Mktg. & Corp. Commc’ns 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 services in a U.S. application to be specific, definite, clear,
`accurate, and concise.  TMEP §1402.01; see In re Fiat Grp. Mktg. & Corp. Commc’ns S.p.A , 109 USPQ2d at 1597-98; Cal. Spray-Chem. Corp.
`
`v. Osmose Wood Pres. Co. of Am., 102 USPQ 321, 322 (Comm’r Pats. 1954).   
`
`The identification of goods and/or services contains brackets and parentheses.  Generally, applicants should not use parentheses and brackets in
`identifications in their applications so as to avoid confusion with the USPTO’s practice of using parentheses and brackets in registrations to
`indicate goods and/or services that have been deleted from registrations or in an affidavit of incontestability to indicate goods and/or services not
`claimed.  See TMEP §1402.12.  The only exception is that parenthetical information is permitted in identifications in an application 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 or scope of the
`identification, e.g., “fried tofu pieces (abura-age).”   Id.
`
`Therefore, applicant must remove the brackets and parentheses from the identification and incorporate any parenthetical or bracketed information
`into the description of the goods and/or services.

`

`The wording “agricultural machines” in the identification of goods is indefinite and must be clarified because it does not make clear the
`nature of the goods.  See 37 C.F.R. §2.32(a)(6); TMEP §1402.01.
`
`The word “parts” in the identification of goods in International Class 8 must be clarified because it is indefinite and too broad.   See 37
`C.F.R. §2.32(a)(6); TMEP §§1402.01, 1402.03.  This wording is indefinite because it does not make clear what the goods are.  Further,
`
`this wording could identify goods in more than one international class.  
`
`International Class 9
`
`The wording “Scientific, nautical, surveying, weighing, measuring, signalling, checking [supervision], life-saving and teaching apparatus
`and instruments” in the identification of goods is indefinite and must be clarified because it does not make clear the apparatus and
`instruments to be included.  See 37 C.F.R. §2.32(a)(6); TMEP §1402.01.

`of the software.   See 37 C.F.R. §2.32(a)(6); TMEP §1402.03(d).   If the software is content- or field-specific, applicant must also specify
`its content or field of use.   See TMEP §1402.03(d).   The USPTO requires such specificity in identifying computer software in order for a
`trademark examining attorney to examine the application properly and make appropriate decisions concerning possible conflicts between
`the applicant’s mark and other marks.   See In re N.A.D. Inc., 57 USPQ2d 1872, 1874 (TTAB 2000); TMEP §1402.03(d).
`
`The international classification of goods in applications filed under Trademark Act Section 66(a) cannot be changed from the
`classification the International Bureau of the World Intellectual Property Organization assigned to the goods in the corresponding
`international registration.  37 C.F.R. §2.85(d); TMEP §1401.03(d).  Therefore, although software may be classified in international
`classes other than International Class 9 (i.e., International Classes 41 and 42), any modification to the identification must identify goods
`in International Class 9 only, the class specified in the application for such goods.  See TMEP §1904.02(c)(ii).
`
`The following are examples of acceptable identifications for software in International Class 9:   “downloadable mobile applications for
`managing bank accounts,” “desktop publishing software,” “tax preparation software.”
`
`The wording “electric wiring devices and instruments” in the identification of goods is indefinite and must be clarified because it does
