JAGUAR

What this record means

The record shows a live Principal Register registration for “JAGUAR” owned by Jaguar Land Rover Limited, a private company organized in the United Kingdom, and the registration was renewed as of the status date of January 24 2018. The protection is limited to class 020 items described as non‑metal key rings, plastic novelty license plates, mirrors, picture frames, jewelry boxes not of metal and desk ornaments not of precious metal, with a first use claim dating back to 1984. Because the listed goods are specific to small decorative and accessory items, a similar name used on, say, automobiles or clothing would be farther from the scope shown here, though the record does not give the owner control over every possible use of the word “JAGUAR.” There is no supplemental‑register activity or descriptiveness refusal noted in the prosecution history. The latest meaningful event is the renewal reflected in the 2018 status update, and the supplied history shows no oppositions, cancellations or other enforcement actions. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan to market comparable decorative accessories under a similar name.
