VIVENDI VISUAL ENTERTAINMENTSerial 78836169 · Principal Register
Dead · Refused
Owner: VIVENDI
Class 009 - Electrical & Scientific Apparatus
Filed Mar 13, 2006
The record shows that “VIVENDI VISUAL ENTERTAINMENT” is an abandoned application – the USPTO marked it dead after no Statement of Use was filed, with the abandonment notice mailed on March 23 2009. The owner listed is VIVENDI, a corporation organized in France. The filing covered Class 009 goods such as pre‑recorded audio and video media, digital audio‑video files, virtual‑reality game software, downloadable ringtones, music, graphics and games for wireless devices, as well as computer and video‑game equipment and related accessories. Because the claim is limited to these electronic‑media and gaming items, a similar name used for, say, clothing or restaurant services would be farther from the scope shown here, though the record does not give the owner control over every possible use of the words “VIVENDI” or “VISUAL ENTERTAINMENT.” The prosecution history shows the application proceeded to a Notice of Allowance in February 2007, then received several extensions for filing a Statement of Use before finally being abandoned in 2009; no opposition, cancellation or court actions appear in the supplied history. I'd treat this as a moderate concern if you plan to launch a product or service that falls within the same electronic‑media and gaming 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.
