BIG BABOON

What this record means

The record shows that BIG BABOON is an abandoned application – the USPTO marked it “dead” after the owner, Charles Wong, failed to file a required Statement of Use or an extension after the Notice of Allowance was issued, with the abandonment entered on April 11 2002. The filing covered computer‑e‑commerce software that lets users conduct electronic business transactions over a global network, licensing of that software, and related services such as updating and maintaining the software, all listed in classes 009, 035 and 042. Because the protection was limited to those software‑related goods and services, a similar name used for unrelated products would be farther from the scope shown here, though the same wording in the same tech space could raise a record‑based concern. The prosecution history shows the application moved through normal examination, received a Notice of Allowance, and then was abandoned; there are no entries indicating oppositions, cancellations or other enforcement actions. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan to use BIG BABOON for comparable software or tech services.
