USPTO creates a resource page for the Trademark Modernization Act

The USPTO has created an informational webpage on the Trademark Modernization Act of 2020 (TMA), identifying key provisions, and an email box to ask questions and provide feedback. The webpage will be updated as additional information becomes available. 

The TMA provides new procedures to challenge trademark applications and registrations with inaccurate claims of use in commerce. It also provides authority for the USPTO to shorten response deadlines to move applications through the system more quickly. For more information, please see the USPTO TMA webpage.
