XBOX 360

What this record means

The record shows that the mark “XBOX 360” is dead and was abandoned by Microsoft Corporation, a corporation organized in Washington, because no Statement of Use or Extension Request was filed after the Notice of Allowance. The mark was registered on the Principal Register and covered the goods of jewelry, ornamental pins, charms, watches and clocks in class 014. A similar name would raise the closest concern in that same class of jewelry and related accessories, but the record does not give Microsoft control over every use of the wording in other classes or contexts. The prosecution history shows a normal sequence of extensions and a final abandonment notice in July 2008. No oppositions, cancellations, or court actions appear in the supplied history, so there is no visible enforcement activity. For someone considering a similar name, the record suggests a meaningful concern if the name is used for jewelry or related items, but it does not preclude use in unrelated goods or services.
