CompuLaw Releases Rules Database for
U.S. Customs Trademark Recordation

LOS ANGELES – August 27, 2008 – David Kalmick, President/CEO of CompuLaw LLC, publisher of calendar/docket matter management software with built-in court rules databases, announces the release of calendaring rules for attorneys that utilize the Rules of Practice and Procedure for U.S. Customs Trademark Recordation.  CompuLaw’s database package now includes court rules for recording trademarks with the U.S. Customs & Border Protection Office, allowing attorneys to efficiently monitor their cases and keep track of all related deadlines.

The U.S. Customs Trademark Recordation rule sets also take advantage of CompuLaw Vision’s most advanced software features. Vision’s Case Summary feature allows for quick and easy calendaring and tracking of all relevant trademark data, including goods covered by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office registration and specific products entitled to U.S. Customs protection.  In addition, the rule sets include Jurisdiction Summary Reports, which list U.S. Customs filing/renewal requirements and include convenient links to the U.S. Customs Web site.

“CompuLaw’s Intellectual Property calendaring databases already include rules for U.S. Patent and Trademarks, the Patent Cooperation Treaty, Madrid Protocol and state trademark rules for all 50 states,” said Kalmick.  “We are pleased to now offer law firms the U.S. Customs Trademark rules to help legal professionals monitor their filing and renewal deadlines.  Our rules are written, edited, tested and maintained by a department of expert in-house attorneys – so we set the standard for accuracy and reliability.  CompuLaw offers the largest national court rules database available today, and our packages are designed to make tracking critical dates and deadlines simple.”
