051-21 Wyo. Code R. §§ 21-4 - Renewal Schedule and Method
(a) Brand Owners
must renew all of their Brands as outlined in these rules.
(b) To renew a Brand, a Brand Owner must
submit to the Board a completed Renewal Notice and the applicable fees during
the Brand's Renewal Period. If the Brand is not renewed during the Brand's
Renewal Period, it will become a Delinquent Brand.
(c) The Renewal schedule for all Brands is
based on the Brand's expiration date. Each Brand's expiration date is staggered
in intervals of two years based on the Brand's original recording date. Unless
otherwise provided in these rules, the expiration date for all Brands is as
follows:
(i) For Brands originally recorded in
years ending in "5" and "6," December 31, 2006, then December 31, 2016, then
December 31, 2026, and so on.
(ii)
For Brands originally recorded in years ending in "7" and "8," December 31,
2008, then December 31, 2018, then December 31, 2028, and so on.
(iii) For Brands originally recorded in years
ending in "9" and "0," December 31, 2010, then December 31, 2020, then December
31, 2030, and so on.
(iv) For
Brands originally recorded in years ending in "1" and "2," December 31, 2012,
then December 31, 2022, then December 31, 2032, and so on.
(v) For Brands originally recorded in years
ending in "3" and "4," December 31, 2014, then December 31, 2024, then December
31, 2034, and so on.
(d)
The Board will place newly recorded Brands in the Renewal schedule that
corresponds with the last number of the Brand's recording date as established
by this Section. A Transfer does not affect the Brand's expiration
date.
(e) If a Brand Owner submits
a check that does not have sufficient funds, the Board must receive funds to
cover the Renewal fee on or before the 60th day after the expiration date of
the Brand Owner's Brand or the Brand will become a Delinquent Brand.
(f) The Board is not responsible for the
return of a Renewal Notice due to an incorrect address that causes a Brand to
become a Delinquent Brand or Abandoned Brand. It is the sole responsibility of
the Brand Owner to inform the Board of any changes in address and to keep all
Brand record information current.
(g) To change a Delinquent Brand to active
status, the Brand Owner must submit to the Board a completed Delinquent Brand
application, the Delinquent Fee, and the applicable Renewal fees within two
years from the Delinquent Brand's expiration date. If a Brand Owner fails to do
so, the Delinquent Brand becomes an Abandoned Brand.
(h) The Board cannot renew more than one of a
Brand Owner's Brands at the same time unless the expiration dates are the same
on all of the Brands or the Brand's Active Term has been modified in accordance
with Section 8. All other Brands can only be renewed during their respective
Renewal Periods as established by the Renewal schedule in this
Section.
