<p class="MsoNormal">Hi all,<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">I've somehow never had this come up before. I have a client who is concerned about an application filed by a Legalzoom-type trademark mill. Since the mill employee is an attorney and was listed as the attorney of record, I sent a letter
about the concerning application to the mill employee. The mill employee promptly withdrew as attorney of record for the application and asked me to contact the applicant directly.<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">But the mill's email address is still listed as a secondary email address for contacting the now-technically-unrepresented applicant, and the "docket number" code hasn't changed.<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Seems like they're trying to be the attorney of record without actually being the attorney of record/representing the applicant. Anyone ever seen this before?<o:p></o:p></p>
