[E-trademarks] How long for the PTO to act on Section 7 requests?

[Katherine Markert]

One of my more recent experiences was 8 months from filing the Section 7 request until it was assigned to a post-registration paralegal.  It was processed by the post-reg paralegal within 2 days of assignment.

Subject: [E-trademarks] How long for the PTO to act on Section 7 requests?

I filed a Section 7 request back in early July that has not been acted on yet.   The PTO’s dashboard on trademark processing times doesn’t appear to include these requests.
