What this record means
The record shows that the mark “IMA” is no longer active; it was abandoned after a decision by the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board. The owner listed is Central House Technologies, Inc., a corporation organized in California. The mark was registered on the Principal Register for services in class 042, specifically computer software consultation services that support electronic mail and related products providing access to the global computer information network. A similar name used for services that fall within that same niche—such as software support for email or internet‑related products—would raise the closest record‑based concern. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the word “IMA”; it only covers the specific services listed. No enforcement actions, oppositions, or cancellations appear in the supplied history, so the record shows no visible enforcement activity. For someone considering a similar name, the abandoned status reduces the risk, but the specific services listed remain a potential point of concern if the new use is closely related.
