GMA SLS2000
Dead · Cancelled DEAD/REGISTRATION/Cancelled/Invalidated
What this record means
The record shows that “GMA SLS2000” is a cancelled Principal Register trademark owned by Muller Martini Mailroom Systems, Inc.; the registration was cancelled on April 24 2020 because the owner failed to file an acceptable Section 8 declaration. The only goods listed are “newspaper handling machines” in International Class 007, so a later use of the same or similar name on anything that handles newspapers would be the closest record‑based concern, while uses in unrelated fields fall farther from the scope shown. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the words “GMA SLS2000.” The prosecution history shows the mark was originally registered on Nov 5 1996, renewed once, and then allowed to lapse, with the latest meaningful event being the Section 8 cancellation in 2020. No oppositions, cancellations by third parties, or court actions appear in the supplied history. I'd treat this as a moderate concern if you plan to market newspaper‑handling equipment under a similar name.
