HOME OWNER HANDBOOK

What this record means

The record shows that the mark “HOME OWNER HANDBOOK” is dead and was abandoned because the applicant did not respond to an Office action. The owner listed is TEO Holdings LLC., a corporation organized in Arizona. The mark was filed on September 6, 2005 under an intent‑to‑use basis and was classified in class 041, covering an educational and entertainment service that includes an organizational handbook for home‑ownership record keeping, home inspection reports, maintenance records, broker contact information, discount vouchers for home service professionals, appliance records, and local service providers. A similar name that targets the same educational or informational services about home ownership would raise the closest record‑based concern. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the wording, only over the specific services listed. The prosecution history shows a non‑final action in March 2006 and an abandonment notice in October 2006, with no later maintenance or enforcement events recorded. The supplied history shows no visible enforcement activity. For someone considering a similar name, the abandoned status reduces the risk, but the specific educational services listed remain a potential concern.
