IMA

What this record means

This record shows that the mark “IMA” is no longer active; it was registered on March 16, 1965, but the owner, HOLIDAY INNS OF AMERICA, INC., failed to renew it, so it expired on June 16, 1985. The registration covered class 016, specifically toilet tissue paper goods, and the mark was first used in commerce on July 1, 1963. Because the mark is dead, it does not give the owner control over the word “IMA” in other contexts or classes. The only visible maintenance event is the expiration notice in 1985; no later actions such as cancellations or oppositions appear in the supplied history. The record shows no enforcement activity. If you are thinking of using a similar name for products or services unrelated to toilet tissue, the closest concern would be the expired use in class 016, but the record does not suggest a broader claim.
