`OFFICE ACTION
`
`STRICT DEADLINE TO RESPOND TO THIS LETTER
`TO AVOID ABANDONMENT OF APPLICANT’S TRADEMARK APPLICATION, THE USPTO MUST RECEIVE APPLICANT’S
`COMPLETE RESPONSE TO THIS LETTER WITHIN 6 MONTHS OF THE ISSUE/MAILING DATE BELOW.
`
`(cid:160)I
`
`SSUE/MAILING DATE: 2/26/2013
`
`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.(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)D
`
`ESCRIPTIVENESS OF THE MARK – SECTION 2(e)(1) REFUSAL
`Registration is refused because the applied-for mark merely describes a feature of applicant’s goods. (cid:160) Trademark Act Section 2(e)(1), 15 U.S.C.
`§1052(e)(1); see TMEP §§1209.01(b), 1209.03 et seq.
`
`(cid:160)A
`
` mark is merely descriptive if it describes an ingredient, quality, characteristic, function, feature, purpose or use of the specified goods.(cid:160) TMEP
`§1209.01(b); see In re Steelbuilding.com, 415 F.3d 1293, 1297, 75 USPQ2d 1420, 1421 (Fed. Cir. 2005); In re Gyulay, 820 F.2d 1216, 1217-18,
`
`3 USPQ2d 1009, 1010 (Fed. Cir. 1987).(cid:160)(cid:160)
`
`In this case, applicant’s mark, DJ SOUND EFFECTS, merely describes the fact that applicant’s goods have, or are capable of playing sound
`
`effects, and that they are directed towards DJs.(cid:160)(cid:160)
`
`The wording “sound effects” are defined by the Houghton Mifflin dictionary (see Attachment C) as an “imitative sound, as of thunder or an
`explosion, produced artificially for theatrical.” (cid:160) As shown at Exhibits A and B, sound mixers can feature on board sound effects and applicant’s
`use of the wording “sound effects” in connection with mixers merely describes that they feature sound effects. (cid:160) As shown by Exhibit D, sound
`effects can be in CD and MP3 format and thus could be played on personal stereos and through digital music players.(cid:160) Because of this,
`applicant’s use of the term “sound effects” in connection with these goods merely indicates that they are capable of playing sound effects.
`
`(cid:160)(cid:160)
`
`The wording “DJ” means “disc jockey” which is a person that plays music or records and applicant’s use of this wording merely describes the
`intended users of applicant’s goods. (cid:160) A mark that describes an intended user or group of users of a product or service is merely descriptive.(cid:160) E.g.,
`In re Planalytics, Inc., 70 USPQ2d 1453 (TTAB 2004) (holding GASBUYER merely descriptive of intended user of risk management services in
`the field of pricing and purchasing natural gas); In re Camel Mfg. Co., 222 USPQ 1031 (TTAB 1984) (holding MOUNTAIN CAMPER merely
`descriptive of intended users of retail and mail order services in the field of outdoor equipment and apparel); see TMEP §1209.03(i).
`
`Generally, a mark that merely combines descriptive words is not registrable if the individual components retain their descriptive meaning in
`relation to the goods and the combination results in a composite mark that is itself descriptive.(cid:160) TMEP §1209.03(d); see, e.g., In re King Koil
`Licensing Co. Inc., 79 USPQ2d 1048, 1052 (TTAB 2006) (holding THE BREATHABLE MATTRESS merely descriptive of beds, mattresses,
`box springs and pillows where the evidence showed that the term “BREATHABLE” retained its ordinary dictionary meaning when combined
`with the term “MATTRESS” and the resulting combination was used in the relevant industry in a descriptive sense); In re Associated Theatre
`Clubs Co., 9 USPQ2d 1660, 1663 (TTAB 1988) (holding GROUP SALES BOX OFFICE merely descriptive of theater ticket sales services
`because such wording “is nothing more than a combination of the two common descriptive terms most applicable to applicant's services which
`
`in combination achieve no different status but remain a common descriptive compound expression”). (cid:160)(cid:160)
`
`Only where the combination of descriptive terms creates a unitary mark with a unique, incongruous, or otherwise nondescriptive meaning in
`relation to the goods is the combined mark registrable.(cid:160) See, e.g., In re Colonial Stores, Inc., 394 F.2d 549, 551, 157 USPQ 382, 384 (C.C.P.A.
`1968).
`
`(cid:160)I
`
`n this case, both the individual components and the composite result are descriptive of applicant’s goods and do not create a unique,
`incongruous or nondescriptive meaning in relation to the goods.(cid:160) Specifically, the mark merely informs consumers that the goods are for use by
`DJs and that they contain, or can play, sound effects.
`
`(cid:160)B
`
`ecause the mark is merely descriptive of the goods identified in the application, registration must be refused.
`
`(cid:160)A
`
`lthough applicant’s mark has been refused registration, applicant may respond to the refusal(s) by submitting evidence and arguments in
`support of registration.

`U.S. TRADEMARK APPLICATION NO. 85808774 - DJ SOUND EFFECT - 9432-200524
`
`2/26/2013 1:38:24 PM
`
`ECOM116@USPTO.GOV
`
`UNITED STATES PATENT AND TRADEMARK OFFICE (USPTO)
`
`IMPORTANT NOTICE REGARDING YOUR
`U.S. TRADEMARK APPLICATION
`
`USPTO OFFICE ACTION (OFFICIAL LETTER) HAS ISSUED
`ON 2/26/2013 FOR U.S. APPLICATION SERIAL NO. 85808774
`
`Please follow the instructions below:
`
`(cid:160)(
`
`1)(cid:160) TO READ THE LETTER:(cid:160) Click on this link or go to http://tsdr.uspto.gov, enter the U.S. application serial number, and click on
`“Documents.”
`
`(cid:160)T
`
`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)(
`
`2)(cid:160) TIMELY RESPONSE IS REQUIRED:(cid:160) Please carefully review the Office action to determine (1) how to respond, and (2) the applicable
`response time period.(cid:160) Your response deadline will be calculated from 2/26/2013 (or sooner if specified in the Office action).(cid:160) For information
`regarding response time periods, see http://www.uspto.gov/trademarks/process/status/responsetime.jsp.
`
`(cid:160)D
`
`o 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)
`Instead, the USPTO recommends that you respond online using the Trademark Electronic Application System
`(TEAS) response form located at http://www.uspto.gov/trademarks/teas/response_forms.jsp.
`
`(cid:160)(
`
`3)(cid:160) QUESTIONS:(cid:160) For questions about the contents of the Office action itself, please contact the assigned trademark examining attorney.(cid:160) For
`technical assistance in accessing or viewing the Office action in the Trademark Status and Document Retrieval (TSDR) system, please e-mail
`TSDR@uspto.gov.
`
`WARNING
`
`(cid:160)F
`
`ailure to file the required response by the applicable response deadline will result in the ABANDONMENT of your application.(cid:160) For
`more information regarding abandonment, see http://www.uspto.gov/trademarks/basics/abandon.jsp.
`
`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.
