CLOSE ENOUGHSerial 75681953 · Principal Register
Live · Registered
Owner: Harrison, Hal
Class 009 - Electrical & Scientific Apparatus
Filed Apr 15, 1999
Registered Feb 27, 2001
The record shows that “CLOSE ENOUGH” is a live Principal Register trademark owned by Hal Harrison, an individual, and it has been renewed through a second ten‑year Section 8 filing on May 22 2021. The registration covers only one class – Class 009 – specifically “computer software for generating electronic time displays,” so the closest area of concern would be any software that creates digital clocks or similar time‑display functions. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the words “close enough” in unrelated fields, and it does not extend to products or services outside the narrow software description listed. The prosecution history shows a straightforward path to registration with no refusals or amendments to the Supplemental Register, and the most recent meaningful event is the 2021 renewal notice. The supplied history contains no oppositions, cancellations or other enforcement actions. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan software that shows electronic time displays, but the risk drops sharply for other types of goods or services.
Full event history, owner details, and verdict inside.
The way I'd use it, honestly, is as the thing you attach when a bank, a marketplace, or a co-founder asks "are we clear on the name". It answers in one page.
