What this record means
The record shows that the mark “TBS” is dead and was abandoned by Truckers Bookkeeping Service, LLC, a limited liability company organized in Oklahoma. The mark was filed as a service mark on August 14 2000 and was abandoned on September 28 2001 because the applicant failed to respond to an office action. The only goods or services listed are business consultation in the field of transportation, specifically the commercial motor vehicle and trucking industries, under class 035. A similar name would raise the closest concern for services related to transportation business consulting or related advertising and business services. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the wording, only over the specific services listed. The prosecution history shows a single non‑final action mailed in February 2001 and the eventual abandonment in September 2001, with no later maintenance events or enforcement actions recorded. For someone considering a similar name, the abandoned status means there is no active registration to enforce, but the historical claim could still raise a concern for closely related transportation consulting services.
