Fwd: Possible TM transfer, no commitments ter

Mike, I believe you have these attached July 2019 docs from prior messages, but I am just getting them off my desk, to make sure you've got the prior run of correspondence from that trademark lawyer.  As I recall they were Phoenix lawyers who Todd P (who lived there) used before, in his own substantial start-ups.  I do not think we (OASIS) got copies of the later directions given to them by OMF once Jascha took over.  No reply necessary

Jamie,
After  speaking with Todd,  we have decided to expressly abandon the existing  trademark application for OPEN MOBILITY FOUNDATION and the refile the  application  in the name of Open Mobility Foundation.
Attached  are the filing receipts for the express abandonment and for the filing  of the new trademark application which took place this afternoon.  To  avoid the  Trademark Office trying to argue there are joint applicants for the  trademark, I filed using Open Mobility Foundation s name as my  understanding after reviewing OASIS s documents is that Open Mobility  Foundation is a separate LLC from OASIS Open Development  Foundation LLC itself (this lets me just list one owner, which is what  we want in this situation).
At  this point, I recognize that my filing the new application in the name  of Open Mobility Foundation has mean that I have, in this limited way,  represented the  company solely for the purposes of filing the new application.  If you  have other trademark counsel OASIS uses to handle trademark applications  for companies associated with the foundation, I think it would be wise  to have new counsel step in at this point  and take over handling this case to minimize any connections with  Movement Technologies.
However,  I am happy to keep assisting with this case if it is what Open Mobility  Foundation and the parties wish me to, I would just need to get a  formal engagement  agreement executed with Open Mobility Foundation to formalize the  relationship.  In about 3-3.5 months the Trademark Office Examiner will  begin the examination process for the new application so we have some  time before there will be any activity with the  application.
Let me know your preference going forward.  Thanks!
Adam
