What this record means
The record shows that the mark “JAGUAR” was abandoned by its owner, JAGUAR CARS LIMITED, a corporation organized in the United Kingdom, and the application is no longer live. The abandoned application was filed on May 22, 1998 under an intent‑to‑use basis and was withdrawn on January 8, 1999. The only goods listed were horological instructions, namely clocks and watches, for use in connection with the promotion of automobiles. Because the mark was never registered, the record does not give the owner control over every use of the word “JAGUAR.” The prosecution history shows a brief examination period before the applicant chose to abandon the application; no supplemental register status is involved. The last event in the record is the express abandonment on January 8, 1999, and no enforcement actions, oppositions, or cancellations appear. For someone looking at a similar name, the closest concern would be using “JAGUAR” for clocks or watches tied to automobile promotion, but the abandoned status means the owner has not asserted rights in that area.
