THE OWNER'S MANUAL

What this record means

The record shows that the mark “THE OWNER'S MANUAL” is dead and was abandoned by its owner, Michael F Roizen, because no Statement of Use or Extension Request was filed after the Notice of Allowance. The mark was applied for on May 6 2005 and was published for opposition on October 17 2006. It covered vitamins and nutraceuticals, food supplements, mineral supplements, nutritional snack bars, protein bars, vitamin‑fortified beverages, nut‑based spreads, packaged trail mix, prepared frozen entrees of lean meat, fish, poultry or vegetables, and soft or refrigerated yogurt. A similar name would raise the closest concern in the pharmaceutical and food‑product categories listed above. The record does not give control over all uses of the wording, only over those specific goods. No enforcement actions appear in the supplied history. The last status event was the abandonment notice mailed on February 8 2010. For someone considering a similar name, the abandoned status means the mark no longer protects that wording, but the specific goods listed remain a potential area of concern.
