<p>I am doing a trademark renewal (sections 71 and 15) for a client
whose entity type is AG (Aktiengesellschaft). I click through the
TEAS form and eventually reach the "owner information" page, at
which it says:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>Legal Entity Type: [??? entity.25 ???]</p>
</blockquote>
<p>This is, of course, nuts. In the most recent version change for
this TEAS form, some software developer screwed this up big time,
and failed to do regression testing.</p>
<p>What it should say in the TEAS form is, of course:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>Legal Entity Type: Aktiengesellschaft (AG)</p>
</blockquote>
<p>I guess for us paying customers of the USPTO, we are all beta
testers, all the time, even when we do not know that we are beta
testers.</p>
