ESMERALDA

What this record means

The record shows that the mark ESMERALDA was abandoned on February 11, 1992 after the applicant, Mona Lee Goss, failed to respond to an Office action, so it is not a live or registered mark. The filing covered a service mark in International Class 041 for “education & entertainment” – specifically using the character Esmeralda in commercials, entertainment, and licensing of products bearing her name and picture, with a claimed first use of October 31, 1979. Because the record is limited to that entertainment‑related description, a similar name used in a different field would be farther from the scope shown here, but a name used for comparable character‑based entertainment services would present the closest record‑based concern. The prosecution history notes a non‑final action mailed on July 1, 1991 and the abandonment entry on February 11, 1992, which is the latest meaningful status event; no further dates are supplied. The supplied history shows no oppositions, cancellations or other enforcement activity. I'd treat this as a moderate concern if you plan a character‑driven entertainment brand with the same name.
