What this record means
This record shows that the mark “FACEBOOK” is dead and was abandoned because the applicant, Simeray, failed to respond to an Office action. The application was filed on November 2, 2008 and the abandonment was finalized on October 15, 2010. The only goods listed are picture frames under class 020, so the closest concern would be a use of the name for picture frames or related display items. The record does not give the mark any control over other uses of the word “Facebook.” The prosecution history shows a series of non‑final actions and a suspension, but no final refusal or amendment to the Supplemental Register, so the mark never reached the Supplemental Register. No enforcement activity such as oppositions or cancellations appears in the supplied history. For someone thinking of a similar name, the main risk is a potential conflict if the name is used for picture frames or similar goods, but the abandoned status limits the scope of any claim.
