[E-trademarks] No response to letter to attorney

[Jessica R. Friedman]

  *   I sent a letter to an attorney whose client has ITU applications pending that conflict with my client’s registered mark. The PTO cited my client’s registration in an OA against the applications, but the attorney missed the response deadline and filed a petition to revive which has just been granted.


  *   My letter detailed likelihood of confusion, asked that they drop the applications and not use the mark, and requested a response by 12/29. I sent it only via Outlook (overnight was not an option). Outlook sent a delivery receipt, but I have not received a reply.


  *   This has never happened in my experience, but I also haven’t sent such a letter for a while. Is this par for the course now? What should the next step be? (We don’t need to take immediate action w/r/t the applications – the PTO may issue a final refusal and they may abandon the applications – but obviously,  we don’t want them to start to use the mark.)
