Sec. 3.28  Requests for recording.

    Each document submitted to the Office for recording must include a 
single cover sheet (as specified in Sec. 3.31) referring either to 
those patent applications and patents, or to those trademark 
applications and registrations, against which the document is to be 
recorded. If a document to be recorded includes interests in, or 
transactions involving, both patents and trademarks, then separate 
patent and trademark cover sheets, each accompanied by a copy of the 
document to be recorded, must be submitted. If a document to be recorded 
is not accompanied by a completed cover sheet, the document and the 
incomplete cover sheet will be returned pursuant to Sec. 3.51 for 
proper completion, in which case the document and a completed cover 
sheet should be resubmitted.
