PURPLESerial 78155919 · Principal Register
Dead · Refused
Owner: Howmedica Osteonics Corp.
Class 010 -
Filed Aug 20, 2002
The record shows that the “PURPLE” application is dead, having been abandoned on September 24 2003 because the applicant, Howmedica Osteonics Corp., failed to respond to an Office action, and it never entered registration; the owner is listed as Howmedica Osteonics Corp., a New Jersey corporation. The only goods listed are “Orthopedic surgical instrument system” in International Class 010, so a later user of “PURPLE” for medical‑device or surgical‑instrument products would encounter the closest record‑based concern. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the word “PURPLE” in unrelated fields, and because it never reached the Supplemental Register there is no supplemental‑register sequence to note. The latest meaningful event is the abandonment entry on September 24 2003, and no further maintenance or renewal dates appear. The prosecution history shows no oppositions, cancellations or court actions, so the supplied history shows no visible enforcement activity. I'd treat this as a modest concern if you plan a similar name in the same medical‑instrument space, but the risk drops sharply for other product categories.
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.
