AAU

Read a random definition: Federal Election Commission

A quick definition of AAU:

AAU: An abbreviation for "Amendment to Allege Use." It is a form filed by a trademark applicant to inform the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office that a trademark is actually in use in interstate commerce. It is also used to make minor changes in the design of a mark to reflect how the mark is actually used. The amendment can only be made if it does not materially alter the character of the mark.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: AAU is an abbreviation for "Amendment to allege use." It is a proposed modification to a registered trademark or an application for trademark registration.

Examples:

  • Amendment of registration: This is when an existing trademark registration is modified to make minor changes in the design of a mark to reflect how the mark is actually used. For example, if a company's logo has changed slightly over time, they may file an amendment of registration to update the trademark registration.
  • Amendment to allege use: This is a supplement to a trademark applicant's intent-to-use application filed to inform the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office that a trademark is actually in use in interstate commerce. For example, if a company filed an intent-to-use application for a trademark but has since started using the trademark in commerce, they may file an amendment to allege use to update their application.
  • Amendment to different register: This is an amendment to an application for registration on the Principal Register, requesting that the mark instead be placed on the supplemental register. For example, if a trademark application is initially filed for the Principal Register but is later found to not meet the requirements for that register, the applicant may file an amendment to request placement on the supplemental register instead.

These examples illustrate how AAU can be used in different situations related to trademark registration and modification.

@RasheedWallaceFan: yeah for some reason SMU isnt listed on any of the rankings lists. Been that way all year
@NemoPropheta: you only got another 40+ years of it!
@PremiumFrequentCrane Is right.
You'll forever have those days where shit ain't getting done. Just a matter of how you handle them. (IE using Chatgpt to draft a motion for leave like meeeee)

look at my lawyer dawg... im going to jail
Nah, I don't use it to do my case law. Just the actual motion drafting.
For example, I was trying to get the right language in a Motion for Sanctions (tl;dr slip and fall case, defense counsel played nothing but games – IE never sending records despite it being mandatory to trcp, producing never before seen records DURING A DEPO) and just talked to ChatGPT about his behavior to provide background to help with the drafting for the procedural paragraph.
@NosyBeagle: just makes me think of vanillamace

real quick question. How much do early applications matter? I have super strong softs and an ok LSAT score of 160. GPA wasn't great at 3.33. I applied in late march and I have been rejected everywhere so far
16:58
late march is way too late

early doesn’t matter but before thanksgiving matters

Have you used the LSAC search for schools link? It helps a lot letting you know the probability of acceptance.
I mean early early might be overblown but dont apply if you are applying in march
