Dead · Refused
Owner: Sullivan, Dale E.
Class 028 -
Filed Oct 07, 2006
The record shows that the mark WORDBITS is abandoned, with the last status dated Feb 8 2008, and the owner listed as Sullivan, Dale E., an individual. The application covered only class 028 goods described as “manipulative games,” so a later use of the same word for anything like board games, puzzles or similar toys would be the closest area of concern based on this filing. The record does not give the owner control over every possible use of the word “wordbits” in unrelated fields. Because the application was filed on an intent‑to‑use basis, the USPTO issued a Notice of Allowance in August 2007, but no Statement of Use was filed and an abandonment notice was mailed in April 2008, which is the latest meaningful event. The supplied history shows no oppositions, cancellations or court actions, so there are no visible enforcement signals. I'd treat this as a moderate concern if you plan a game‑related product using a similar name.
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.
