SPONSOR-OWNER-ACCEPTOR

What this record means

The record shows that the mark “SPONSOR-OWNER-ACCEPTOR” is dead, having been abandoned on February 10, 2020 because the applicant, Gerald Sangudi, failed to respond to an Office action. The mark was filed on May 15, 2019 as a service mark on the Principal Register under class 042, covering application‑service‑provider activities such as hosting, managing, developing, analyzing, and maintaining applications, software, and websites for others in healthcare, benefits programs, employee productivity, risk management, and related fields, as well as rental of application software. Because the mark is no longer active, it does not give the owner control over every use of the wording, but the closest concern would arise for services that overlap those specific software‑hosting and development activities. The prosecution history shows a standard sequence of a non‑final action and subsequent abandonment, with no evidence of opposition, cancellation, or other enforcement actions. For someone considering a similar name, the abandoned status reduces the risk, yet the specific services listed remain a potential point of concern if the new use is in the same technical field.
