GMASerial 97431217 · Principal Register
Live · Registered
Owner: Karpuch, Alan
Class 042 - Scientific & Technology Services
Filed May 26, 2022
Registered Jul 18, 2023
The record shows a live, Principal Register service mark for “GMA” owned by Alan Karpuch, an individual, and it is currently registered. The registration covers scientific and technology services in class 042, specifically “Authentication in the field of trading cards,” with a first use date of October 18 2003. A similar name used for anything that involves authenticating trading cards would be the closest area of concern, because the goods‑and‑services description is narrowly focused on that activity. The record does not give the owner control over every possible use of the letters GMA in other contexts. The most recent status event is the registration confirmation on July 18 2023; no future deadline is listed in the data. The prosecution history shows a smooth path to registration with no oppositions or cancellations, so the supplied history shows no enforcement activity. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan a comparable authentication service for trading cards.
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.
