Dead · Refused DEAD/APPLICATION/Refused/Dismissed or Invalidated
What this record means
The record shows that the mark “IMA” is dead because the applicant, The IMA Financial Group, Inc., failed to respond to an office action. The mark was filed on July 22, 2005 and abandoned on September 14, 2006. It was on the Principal Register and covered paper goods and printed matter, insurance and financial services, and educational services related to workplace safety. A similar name would raise the closest concern in those same areas, especially where printed publications or insurance brokerage services are involved. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the word “IMA.” No enforcement activity is visible in the supplied history. The last meaningful event was the abandonment notice on September 14, 2006. For someone considering a similar name, the abandoned status means the mark is no longer protected, but the specific goods and services listed still represent the narrow scope of the original claim.
