Coding of Design Marks in Registrations
The United States Patent and Trademark Office ("USPTO") is discontinuing the practice of coding newly registered trademarks that include a design element with design mark codes based on the old paper search designations. The USPTO will continue to code all pending applications that contain a design element using a numerical design code system modeled after the International Classification of the Figurative Elements of Marks ("USPTO Design Classification").
