ELSA

What this record means

The record shows that the “ELSA” application filed by PDS Associates, Inc., a Connecticut corporation, is dead – it was abandoned on February 10 2006 because no Statement of Use or extension was filed after the Notice of Allowance was issued. The goods listed are metal hardware pulls (class 006), plumbing fittings and fixtures such as faucets, tub fillers, spouts, handles and handheld showers (class 011), and a range of bath accessories including toilet‑paper holders, towel bars, porcelain or glass knobs and pulls, toothbrush holders and towel rings (class 021). A similar name used for products in those categories would raise the closest record‑based concern, while uses outside of hardware, plumbing or bathroom accessories fall farther from the scope shown. The record does not give the owner control over every possible use of the word “ELSA.” The latest meaningful event is the abandonment notice mailed on April 10 2006. No oppositions, cancellations or court actions appear in the history, so the supplied record shows no visible enforcement activity. I'd treat this as a moderate concern if you plan to market hardware or bathroom items under a similar name.
