What this record means
The record shows that the mark “EFORMS ADOPTION FRAMEWORK” is dead, having been abandoned because the applicant did not respond to an Office action. The owner listed is IDK Enterprises, Inc., a Delaware corporation. The mark was filed on April 4, 2003 under an intent‑to‑use basis for class 009, covering computer software for creating, formatting, securing, transmitting and managing documents via a computer network, and related computer services. A similar name would raise the closest concern in the area of network‑based document management software and services. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the wording; it only reflects the specific goods and services listed. The prosecution history shows a non‑final action in October 2003, assignment to an examiner, and abandonment in July 2004. No enforcement activity appears in the supplied history. For someone considering a similar name, the abandoned status means the mark is no longer enforceable, but the specific software and services listed still represent the narrow area of concern.
