|
NOTE: You
must limit your entry here, and for all remaining fields within
this overall section (except City, see below), to no more than 40
characters (the storage limit for the USPTO database). You may

that address current. If the owner/holder is represented by a
U.S.-licensed attorney, only the attorney's email address will be
used for correspondence by the USPTO.
NOTE: The
owner/holder or the owner's/holder's attorney acknowledges that
he or she is solely responsible for receiving USPTO emails.
Additionally, the owner/holder or the owner's/holder's attorney
is responsible for periodically checking the status of the

Status & Document Retrieval (TSDR) system.
USPTO notices and office actions issued in this
