<div>Hi All,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I have a small client who is contemplating filing a Letter of Protest against a larger competitor who filed a trademark for a term they consider generic or descriptive of the technology they use.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>They are concerned that if they are identified as the "Protestor" there might be retaliation.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The "Name of Protestor" field instruction says "Enter the full legal name of the entity objecting to the registration of a mark in a pending application, i.e., the name of the individual, corporation, partnership, or other entity that is protesting registration
of a mark, NOT the person or firm completing the Letter of Protest."<br>
<br>
</div>
<div>Could we use the name of the in-house attorney who is initiating the objection or some other name?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Thanks for any insight.<br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
