SEA

What this record means

The record shows that “SEA” was a Principal Register service mark owned by Eastman Kodak Company, covering photofinishing services in International Class 040, and that the registration was cancelled on April 19 2008 because the owner failed to file an acceptable Section 8 declaration to maintain the mark. Because the listed goods are limited to photofinishing, a similar name used for anything outside that narrow service area would be the closest record‑based concern, but the record does not give Kodak control over every possible use of the word “SEA.” The prosecution history shows the mark moved through normal examination, was allowed and registered in 2001, and then fell into cancellation when the required renewal filing was missed; there is no indication of oppositions, cancellations by third parties, or other enforcement activity in the supplied history. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan a service that could be seen as photofinishing, but the risk drops sharply for unrelated services.
