<div dir="ltr"><div>Hi all,</div><div><br></div><div>We have an application that's in suspension awaiting resolution of a prior-filed application that received a non-final OA. That party filed an extension to respond, and then subsequently missed its final deadline to respond. That deadline was nearly four months ago and the USPTO has yet to issue an abandonment notice to the other party. Ideally, that mark should've been dead by now.<br></div><div><br></div><div>I know I'm not allowed to contact the EA on that application myself, but is there any other method by which I can prompt a review of that application's status? The only thing I can think of is to contact the EA on our own application to ask them if they can do something internally, but I'd prefer to take another route if possible.<br></div><div><br></div><div>Thanks,</div><div>Spencer</div><div><br></div><div><span class="gmail_signature_prefix">-- </span><br><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><span style="color:rgb(255,0,0)"><b>SPENCER CROSS</b><br></span></div><div><span style="color:rgb(68,68,68)">Senior Associate Attorney</span></div><div><br></div><img width="200" height="21" src="https://ci3.googleusercontent.com/mail-sig/AIorK4xS-3Ei2M0xdeyBGagArJkSy7KgPNI3yRSLp7Iw_6Xly93M_Q5xJHJus-RH2q1jOrO9ADZYKKAG1t-A"><br><div><span style="color:rgb(68,68,68)">680 E. Colorado Blvd., Ste. 180</span></div><div><span style="color:rgb(68,68,68)">Pasadena, CA 91101</span></div><span style="color:rgb(68,68,68)">Main: (323) 657-3380<br><span style="color:rgb(0,0,0)"><a href="http://counselforcreators.com" target="_blank">http://counselforcreators.com</a><br><a href="mailto:spencer@counselforcreators.com" target="_blank">spencer@counselforcreators.com</a></span></span><br><a href="https://counselforcreators.com/consult/clients/sc/" target="_blank"><b>Click here to schedule a call with me</b></a>.<br><div><br></div><div><i><span style="color:rgb(68,68,68)">Please direct general inquiries about billing, subscriptions, etc. to <a href="mailto:hello@counselforcreators.com" target="_blank">hello@counselforcreators.com</a></span></i></div><div><br></div><div><img alt=""><img alt=""><a href="https://www.facebook.com/counselforcreators/" target="_blank"><img alt="Facebook" src="https://ci3.googleusercontent.com/mail-sig/AIorK4xR5A8B5myDmQkg_psezEdkzGp3FLDbfCFJmZiY2-Gsl8AlkRDwUsl0b71UwlJBfuYA6AGmRTw"></a> <a href="https://www.instagram.com/counselforcreators/" target="_blank"><img alt="Instagram" src="https://ci3.googleusercontent.com/mail-sig/AIorK4ynmKPeBWUe13bNfaTEq6lTX9SF2oCog11uoriDJYfOiLJ8i9egRsl0Iih6E0IeDC-WYO-CIfU"></a> <a href="https://www.yelp.com/biz/counsel-for-creators-los-angeles-10" target="_blank"><img alt="Yelp" src="https://ci3.googleusercontent.com/mail-sig/AIorK4wyIDmTjdtYYZvBl5aZ8vh85BKKMsUkNhcPMR9I2Xd2wGF2WG2V0xgmnfKa1UYQ-thYMj-gqR4"></a> <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/spencercross/" target="_blank"><img alt="LinkedIn" src="https://ci3.googleusercontent.com/mail-sig/AIorK4zb92uvu4Cawxv7br-tA4ouqwQJNkqV3f1jyT3ojMOILOyKx1lMKEv8bwH4VW6H-Fpi3XkyRsE"></a><img alt=""></div><div><span style="color:rgb(102,102,102)"><font size="2"><span style="font-family:times new roman,serif"><b><br></b></span></font></span></div><div><span style="color:rgb(102,102,102)"><font size="2"><span style="font-family:times new roman,serif"><b>CONFIDENTIALITY NOTICE</b>: <i>The information contained in this e-mail and any accompanying attachment(s) is intended only for the use of the intended recipient and may be confidential and/or privileged. If you are not the intended recipient, unauthorized use, disclosure or copying is strictly prohibited and may be unlawful. If you have received this communication in error, please immediately notify me at <a href="mailto:spencer@counselforcreators.com" target="_blank">spencer@counselforcreators.com</a> and delete the original message and all copies from your system. Thank you.</i></span></font></span></div></div></div></div></div>
