Sec. 3.85  Issue of registration to assignee.

    The certificate of registration may be issued to the assignee of the 
applicant, or in a new name of the applicant, provided that the party 
files a written request in the trademark application by the time the 
application is being prepared for issuance of the certificate of 
registration, and the appropriate document is recorded in the Office. If 
the assignment or name change document has not been recorded in the 
Office, then the written request must state that the document has been 
filed for recordation. The address of the assignee must be made of 
record in the application file.
