WORDLINE

What this record means

The record shows that WORDLINE is a cancelled Supplemental Register registration owned by Motorola, Inc.; the cancellation was entered on Oct 7 2006 because the registrant failed to file an acceptable Section 8 declaration, and no later renewal activity appears. The registration covered only class 009 “Electrical & Scientific Apparatus,” specifically portable radio communication receivers and transmitters, related software, replacement parts and user manuals. A similar name used for those kinds of communications devices would raise the closest record‑based concern, while uses in unrelated fields would be farther from the scope shown here. The prosecution history indicates the application was initially allowed on the Principal Register in August 1999, then shifted to the Supplemental Register and finally registered there on Jan 4 2000 after a statement‑of‑use was accepted; this sequence reflects the USPTO’s handling of a descriptiveness issue but does not broaden the protection. The supplied history contains no oppositions, cancellations beyond the Section 8 event, or other enforcement actions. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan a name for similar radio‑communication products.
