JAGUAR

What this record means

The record shows that the “JAGUAR” application filed by CTS Corporation on August 2 2000 is dead; it was abandoned after an inter‑partes decision by the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board on April 30 2002. The only goods listed are high‑resolution voltage‑controlled crystal oscillators for fiber‑optic infrastructure, gigabit Ethernet and high‑frequency data communication products in International Class 009, so a similar name used for those kinds of electronic components would be the closest area of concern. The record does not give CTS Corporation control over every use of the word “JAGUAR,” especially in unrelated fields. Because the mark was never placed on the Supplemental Register, there is no supplemental‑register examination sequence to note. The latest meaningful event is the abandonment status date of April 30 2002, and the supplied history shows no oppositions, cancellations or other enforcement activity. I'd treat this as a modest concern if you plan to brand similar high‑tech hardware, but the risk is limited to that narrow technical niche.
