[E-trademarks] Virtual mailbox address

Tue Feb 6 12:00:17 EST 2024

I'm going to start doing that too, or just ask the client to confirm when we provide the proposed details for an application.

But isn't it tiresome that as they are taking  9-10 months to get to applications they are wasting time searching for whether the client used a mail drop address.  Roll On federal Circuit and Strike this down!!

I've added to my procedures that we Google Map the address the client gives/found in the Corporate database so that we can avoid that.  The examiners are definitely doing so.

Does the USPTO accept a commercial virtual mailbox address (not a PO Box) as a domicile address ("where you sleep at night")?

Sorry if this has been asked before. I thought there was a way to search archives of all past listserv messages, but it appears the archive only goes back four months, is that right?

Best regards,

Ken
