combined application

An application to register a mark to be used in more than one class of goods or services.

• A combined application is given a single serial number, but it is examined as if it were a set of distinct single applications. A separate filing fee must be paid for each class.

— Also termed multiple-class application. [Cases: Trade Regulation 212. C.J.S. Trade-Marks, Trade-Names, and Unfair Competition §§ 176–177.]
