THE ROCK 'N ROLL MOTIVATOR

What this record means

The record shows the mark THE ROCK 'N ROLL MOTIVATOR is abandoned, with the last status change on Oct 21 2013 when the USPTO issued an abandonment notice because no Statement of Use was filed after the Notice of Allowance; the owner listed is Todd Underwood, an individual. The registration covered Class 016 paper goods – specifically a “Series of books in the field of self‑improvement” – and Class 041 services – “Educational and entertainment services, namely, motivational and keynote speaking on the topics of self‑improvement.” A similar name would raise the closest concern if used for self‑help books or motivational speaking, since those are the exact goods and services the record describes. The record does not give the owner control over every possible use of the words “rock,” “roll,” or “motivator” in unrelated fields. No enforcement actions such as oppositions or cancellations appear in the history. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern for anyone planning a self‑improvement book series or motivational speaking brand that uses a comparable name.
