If practitioner experience isn't relevant (I agree it's not necessarily representative of the full universe), why should our notes include the factual claim from a member of the WG that registrants often choose not to respond? What is the factual, non-cherry
picked evidence for that claim?</p>

<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt; font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">Thanks for these good notes Berry,</span></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt; font-family:"Arial","sans-serif""> </span></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt; font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">Just one question/clarification, as to this note:</span></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt; font-family:"Arial","sans-serif""> </span></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt; font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">“What type of mark was submitted in complaint?</span></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt; font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">Qualitative experiences from Practitioners as it relates to what they see in regards to Standing, Grounds, Filing Period [Need to further develop these questions]”</span></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt; font-family:"Arial","sans-serif""> </span></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt; font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">If I understand the way this is recorded correctly (this comes up at about minute 21 on the call), I raised concerns about standing/grounds experiences from practitioners,
and suggested that instead that we simply look at whether the mark is listed in the decision (note that as a filing requirement/compliance review matter, there is a requirement that the complaint list the mark on which it is based).</span></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt; font-family:"Arial","sans-serif""> </span></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt; font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">The same concern has been raised numerous times as to the standard of proof, namely that if we simply ask practitioners for their experiences there is a significant risk
of cherry-picking for effect and focusing in only on a few select cases that people feel should have gone a different way, and we are not privy to the pleadings (and, frankly unfortunately many of the decisions are extremely light on text/reasoning).</span></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt; font-family:"Arial","sans-serif""> </span></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt; font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">I would also like to see if the notes can reflect that in terms of notice (building on the provider obligations) that in many cases the registrant chooses not to respond,
and this should not be mistaken as a “notice issue”.</span></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt; font-family:"Arial","sans-serif""> </span></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt; font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">Thanks!</span></p>

<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">Please find attached the meeting notes and the updated the Complication of URS Discussion Documents that we reviewed yesterday. The notes highlight each sections the group reviewed with a summary of data sources.
The data sources were then imported into a new column #5 labeled “Data Sources”. I tried to detail which data sources need to be passed to the Practitioners or the Providers, but I think we will want to spend a little time refining the actual request/questions
we want them to take on. We can discuss more on our next call.</span></p>
