The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (“USPTO”) is cracking down on inaccurate, improper, or fraudulent claims that a trademark is being used. Effective January 2, 2021, the USPTO will impose a $250 fee per Class if any goods are deleted from that Class due to an audit or during the examination of a registrant’s maintenance filing. Failure to pay the deletion fee will result in the cancellation of the entire registration in every Class.
