WOODTRAX

What this record means

The record shows that WOODTRAX is an abandoned application – the USPTO marked it “dead” after the applicant, GIobalSoft Corporation, Inc., failed to answer an Office action, with the abandonment notice dated November 19 2004. The filing covered only one class, 009, for “Computer software for designing items to be cut by a scroll saw,” so the closest area of concern would be any software that helps plan scroll‑saw projects or similar cutting‑tool design tools. The record does not give GIobalSoft control over every use of the word WOODTRAX in unrelated fields, and it never reached registration on either the Principal or Supplemental Register. The latest meaningful event is the abandonment notice in November 2004, and no further maintenance or renewal dates appear. The prosecution history shows a final refusal in May 2003 followed by the abandonment, but there are no oppositions, cancellations, or court actions listed, so the supplied history shows no enforcement activity. I'd treat this as a modest concern if you plan software for scroll‑saw design, because the existing filing targets that same niche.
