Dear\u00a0Mr. Chiang<\/strong>,<\/p>\n

I hope this email finds you well.<\/p>\n

My name is\u00a0Sienna Grant<\/strong>, Paralegal Specialist, contacting you on behalf of\u00a0Mr. Aaron Benjamin, Senior IP Attorney | Litigation Officer<\/strong>, from the\u00a0Trademark Assistance Center<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

I am writing in reference to the trademark\u00a01-CLICK FINANCING<\/strong>\u00a0(U.S. Serial No.\u00a078713728<\/span><\/strong>), originally filed on\u00a0September 15, 2005<\/strong>, under the ownership of\u00a0United College Marketing Services, Inc.<\/strong>\u00a0I\u2019m following up to clarify the status of this filing and outline the appropriate next steps.<\/p>\n

Following our review of the official USPTO record, the application is confirmed as\u00a0abandoned due to a failure to respond, or a late response, to the Office Action issued during examination<\/strong>. Key actions reflected in the file include:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • \n

    New Application Filed:<\/strong>\u00a0September 15, 2005<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  • \n

    Search Summary Issued:<\/strong>\u00a0March 29, 2006<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  • \n

    Non-Final Office Action Issued:<\/strong>\u00a0March 29, 2006<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  • \n

    No Timely Response Received by Deadline<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  • \n

    Application Abandoned:<\/strong>\u00a0October 2, 2006<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  • \n

    Notice of Abandonment Issued:<\/strong>\u00a0October 26, 2006<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    For transparency, I have attached the official\u00a0Notice of Abandonment\u00a0<\/strong>which was mailed to the address of record:<\/p>\n

    United College Marketing Services, Inc.<\/strong>
    Suite 100
    125 University Ave.<\/span>
    Palo Alto, California 94301<\/span>
    United States<\/span><\/p>\n

    At this time, the application carries\u00a0no federal trademark protection<\/strong>, and the mark is considered\u00a0open within the public marketplace<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

    Please note: The Assistance Center routinely monitors abandoned filings where there is potential for third-party registration of identical or confusingly similar marks. To avoid any risk of another party asserting rights in\u00a01-CLICK FINANCING<\/strong>, we simply need to confirm how you would like to proceed.<\/p>\n

    To move forward, we recommend scheduling a brief\u00a0compliance review call<\/strong>\u00a0to:<\/p>\n

    \u2022 Review the procedural history of the prior filing
    \u2022 Confirm whether the mark is still in use in commerce
    \u2022 Determine whether filing a new federal application is advisable under current USPTO standards<\/p>\n

    This call typically takes\u00a010\u201315 minutes<\/strong>\u00a0and helps ensure that any future filing is accurate and fully compliant.<\/p>\n

    Please reply with the day and time that works best for you this week, and we will be happy to make the arrangements. We look forward to assisting you further.<\/p>\n

    Respectfully,
    <\/span><\/p>\n
