ELSA

What this record means

The record shows that the application for the mark ELSA was abandoned on November 28, 2000 after the applicant, Atlas Technologies A.G., a Swiss corporation, failed to respond to an Office action, so the mark is not live or registered. The filing covered Class 010 goods described as “anatomically‑shaped pillows, cushions, mattresses and body supports for medical purposes” and Class 020 goods listed simply as “pillows, cushions, mattresses and body supports.” A similar name used for any of those types of pillows, cushions or medical‑purpose supports would raise the closest record‑based concern, while uses in unrelated categories would be farther from the scope shown here. The record does not give Atlas Technologies control over every possible use of the word ELSA. The prosecution history notes a non‑final action mailed on March 23, 2000 and an abandonment entry on November 28, 2000, which is the latest meaningful status event; no enforcement actions appear in the file. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan to market pillow‑type products under a similar name.
