| Goods and Services | 11/08/25 RE: Trademark 99195780, KURTAIN KATCHER Dear USPTO Examiner: This is a Response to Non-Final Office Action (with such Office Action dated October 14, 2025). Issue 1: Goods and Services Category: In the original Application submission, there was a clerical error made: The Goods and Services Category of Shower Curtains was erroneously selected from the USPTO ID Manual as the only available Category in the USPTO Goods and Services ID Manual that is the nearest description to what the product (i.e., the good) is related. No matching category for the product (i.e., the good: Shower Curtain Catcher) exists within the USPTO Goods and Services ID Manual. Therefore, to properly clarify the correct Category, per Rule 2.71(a), the Applicant now is requesting that the Goods and Services of Shower Curtains be deleted from the Application, that the Class of Goods be amended to Class 020, Furniture and Plastic Goods, and that the description of the Category, as contained within the Specimen already submitted, be applied. Trademark Rule 2.71(a), states that applicants can amend the application to clarify or limit the identification, but not to broaden it. This rule applies to all applications and allows for narrowing the scope, but not expanding it, for the goods or services description and Category. The Specimen, as submitted, already contains the description of the good, specifically: Stops Your Shower Curtain from Blowing In. And because this description is already contained as part of the original Application, this therefore does not broaden the scope of the Application when deleting the erroneous Category Shower Curtains. These minor allowable amendments to the Application adhere to the requirements of the Trademark Manual of Examining Procedure (TMEP) § 1402.01; and USPTO Rules of Practice in Trademark Cases (37 C.F.R. Part 2); and the Lanham Act, Section 1 (15 U.S.C. § 1051). Issue 2: Specimen: By clarifying the application when deleting the erroneously-selected Goods and Services Category - Shower Curtains - the Specimen (showing the Shower Curtain Catcher presently in use for commerce), already submitted previously, de-facto becomes correct and acceptable. However, per Examiner request, Applicant is submitting a substitute Specimen to add even greater clarity of the goods use in commerce. Issue 3: Disclaimer of Descriptive Wording Applicant now delares: No claim is made to the exclusive right to use CURTAIN apart from the mark as shown. |
