Common situation
My trademark was abandoned after an examination report.
The examination reply is due within 30 days of receipt, non-extendable without Form TM-M. Many founders discover the lapse years later.
The situation
- 01Low-cost platforms file the mark, then nobody replies to the examination report within the 30-day window.
- 02The window is non-extendable without Form TM-M.
- 03An opposition counter-statement is due within 2 months, non-extendable, with no relief for delay.
