<p>A few days ago, for the very first time, I clicked around in
Trademark Center. This was in a shared desktop situation where I
was helping somebody click around in it. The person has a plan of
filing <i>pro se</i> a few days from now. So our goal was to
click around in Trademark Center together and see what the
workflow is like.</p>
<p>I happened to be already logged in to MyUSPTO at the time. And I
clicked around to commence use of Trademark Center. I was
sharing my screen with the would-be future <i>pro se</i> filer.<br>
</p>
<p>What jumped out at me was, it absolutely refused to allow the
session to move forward <i>pro se</i>. It demanded that an
attorney be identified for the to-be-filed application.</p>
<p>Maybe others have more experience with Trademark Center. Is
there a way to use Trademark Center <i>pro se</i>? <br>
<br>
Is it simply that I had already been logged in at MyUSPTO? That
was what made it impossible to proceed <i>pro se</i>?</p>
