MICROSOFTSerial 87215500 · Principal Register
Dead · Refused
Owner: DAVILA,CARLOS F.
Class 009 - Electrical & Scientific Apparatus
Filed Oct 25, 2016
The record shows that the mark “MICROSOFT” was abandoned on February 14, 2018, and the owner is Carlos Dávila, a corporation organized in Washington. The abandoned application covered computer programs or operating software and retailer services under class 009, first used in commerce on July 16, 1996. Because the mark was never registered, it does not give the owner exclusive rights to the word in all contexts, but it does indicate that a similar name used for software or related retail services could raise the closest concern. The prosecution history shows a series of non‑final actions and an amendment entered in June 2017, followed by a failure to respond that led to abandonment; no supplemental register status is involved. The latest event in the record is the abandonment notice mailed on February 14, 2018. No oppositions, cancellations, or court actions appear, so the supplied history shows no enforcement activity. For someone considering a similar name, the abandoned status means the mark is not enforceable, but the goods and services listed still represent a potential area of concern if the new name is used in the same field.

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.
