TRAVELING SECURE-A-TOT

What this record means

The record shows the application for TRAVELING SECURE‑A‑TOT was abandoned, so the mark is not live or registered; the owner listed is Diane M. Gray, an individual, and the filing was an intent‑to‑use basis. The only goods covered were a “soft fabric child restraint worn secured about waist of child to a stationary object such as a grocery cart when a child is set in the front part thereof” in International Class 26, so a similar name used for that type of child‑safety product would be the closest area of concern. The record does not give Gray control over every use of the words “traveling,” “secure,” or “tot” in other contexts. The prosecution history shows the application moved through approval for publication, a notice of allowance that required a statement of use, and then abandonment on Nov 5 1993 when no use statement was filed. No opposition, cancellation or court action appears in the history, so there is no visible enforcement signal. I'd treat this as a modest concern if you plan a child‑restraint product with a similar name, but the risk is limited to that narrow product description.
