<div dir="ltr"><div>All, </div><div> Have an application for which I will be deleting 1(a) and inserting 1(b) in response to an office action. I want to then amend to allege use - before it's approved for publication. The 1(b) basis will put the application on track for publication, so I am wondering if I'm likely to have time to file before AAU approval. I did this a few years ago, and it seemed to work, but looking for more recent experience. And yes, I'll warn the TMEx that I'll be doing so. </div><div> Thank you, </div><div><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div style="font-size:small">Tim Ackermann</div><div style="font-size:small">The Ackermann Law Firm</div><p><font face="verdana, sans-serif" size="1"><span style="background-image:initial;background-position:initial;background-repeat:initial">E: <a href="mailto:tim@ackermannlaw.com" target="_blank">tim@ackermannlaw.com</a></span><br><span style="background-image:initial;background-position:initial;background-repeat:initial">P: 817.305.0690</span><br>
