METROPOLITAN LIMOUSINE

What this record means

The record shows that “METROPOLITAN LIMOUSINE” is a live Principal Register service mark owned by DDSSBOS LLC, a Massachusetts limited liability company, and it has been renewed as of the May 28 2018 status date. The registration covers “Limousine services” in International Class 039, with the first use claimed in 1973 and use in commerce dated February 22 1994, so a similar name used for any kind of limousine or transportation‑related service would be the closest area of concern. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the words “metropolitan” or “limousine” outside that specific service description. There is no prosecution history listed, and the latest meaningful event is the renewal noted in 2018; no future deadline appears in the data. The supplied history shows no oppositions, cancellations or other enforcement activity. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan to offer limousine services under a comparable name.
