ARIS/GMA

What this record means

The record shows the mark ARIS/GMA is cancelled, not live, and was owned by Ascent Technology, Inc., a Massachusetts corporation; its registration on the Principal Register was cancelled on Oct 6 2001 because the owner failed to file an acceptable Section 8 declaration. The only goods listed are “computer software for airport resource management and user manuals associated therewith,” so a similar name used in that niche would raise the closest record‑based concern, while uses outside airport‑related software are not covered by this filing. The record does not give the owner control over every possible use of the words “ARIS” or “GMA.” No Supplemental Register entry appears, and the prosecution history simply tracks the normal allowance, registration and later cancellation steps. The latest meaningful event is the Section 8 cancellation in 2001, and the supplied history shows no oppositions, cancellations by others, or other enforcement activity. I'd treat this as a moderate concern if you plan software for airport management, but the risk drops sharply for unrelated products or services.
