What this record means
The record shows that the mark “DR. DUNBAR'S ERGO-SYNAMIC “DR. DUNBAR'S ERGO_DYNAMIC SLEEP SYSTEM, LLC” is dead, having been abandoned because the applicant failed to respond to an office action. The owner listed is STEVEN E. DUNBAR, LLC, a Nevada limited liability company. The mark covered mattresses and mattress topper pads for therapeutic use, class 020, with first use in November 1997 and use in commerce in February 1998. Because the mark is no longer active, it does not give the owner control over the wording in other contexts, but the specific goods listed create the closest area of concern for anyone using a similar name for therapeutic mattresses or related products. The prosecution history shows a normal examination sequence ending in abandonment; no enforcement actions or oppositions appear in the supplied history. For someone considering a similar name, the main risk is potential confusion in the therapeutic mattress market, though the mark’s abandonment reduces the likelihood of immediate conflict.
