MANUS

What this record means

The record shows that the mark “MANUS” is dead, having been abandoned because the applicant failed to respond to an Office action. The owner listed is WallPartners LLC, a limited liability company organized in Connecticut. The mark was filed as a service mark on March 11, 2008 under the intent‑to‑use basis for class 035, covering information, advisory and consultancy services relating to business and management or business administration, including services provided online or via the internet. Because the mark is no longer active, it does not give the owner control over every use of the word “MANUS.” The prosecution history shows a non‑final action in June 2008 and an abandonment notice in January 2009, with no further maintenance or renewal events. No enforcement activity such as oppositions or cancellations appears in the supplied history. For someone considering a similar name, the closest concern would be in the same business‑consulting services area, but the abandoned status suggests a lower risk than an active registration.
