Practice question
A mark is registered only for specified clothing goods. In a renewal request, its holder lists an entirely new pharmaceutical service and says renewal alone expands the registration to that unrecorded service. Which is best?
- Renewal particulars concern recorded goods or services; renewal alone does not establish the claimed expansion.
- Renewal automatically covers every business activity of the holder.
- A service needs no identification once any goods mark exists.
- The ten-year term makes all goods and services identical.
- Every new service inherits the old filing date without legal basis.
