VELOTAX INTERNATIONAL COURIER VELOTAX VIENDO A COLOVEA Y AL MUNDO

What this record means

The record shows that the mark VELOTAX INTERNATIONAL COURIER VELOTAX VIENDO A COLOVEA Y AL MUNDO was abandoned after an inter partes decision by the TTAB, with the last status date of January 20, 2009, and the owner listed as Velotax International Corporation, a Florida corporation. The only goods listed are “courier services” in International Class 039, based on use in commerce beginning October 5, 2004. Because the registration was limited to courier services, a similar name used for unrelated goods—say, software or apparel—would be farther from the scope shown here, while another courier or delivery business using a comparable name would be the closest area of concern. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the words “Velotax” or “International Courier.” No prosecution history is provided, and the mark is not on the Supplemental Register. The supplied history contains no visible enforcement actions such as oppositions or cancellations. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan to offer courier services under a similar name.
