MASTER CHEF

What this record means

The record shows that the mark “MASTER CHEF” is dead, having been abandoned because the applicant failed to respond or filed a late response to an Office action. The owner listed is WEST 175 ENTERPRISES, INC, a California corporation, and the mark was filed on June 29, 1998 under an intent‑to‑use basis. The goods and services covered were cookbooks (class 016) and educational and entertainment services in the nature of an ongoing television program on cooking (class 041). Because the mark is no longer active, it does not grant control over every use of the wording, but the closest area of concern would be in the cooking or culinary education space. The prosecution history shows a non‑final action mailed in December 1998 and abandonment in August 1999, with no subsequent maintenance or enforcement events recorded. The supplied history shows no visible enforcement activity. If you are considering a similar name in cooking or culinary education, this record suggests a meaningful risk of similarity in that specific field.
