TOAD

What this record means

The record shows that the “TOAD” application filed by WM & DG, INC., a corporation organized in Illinois, is dead – it was abandoned on Jan 2 2023 because no Statement of Use was filed after the Notice of Allowance was issued. The only goods listed are “medical apparatus with wireless transmittal capability that provides continual visualization, heart, breath sounds and temperature monitoring in real time from internally or externally placed medical devices” in International Class 010, so a similar name would raise the closest concern for products in that narrow medical‑device field. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the word “toad” in other industries or contexts. Because the application was on the Principal Register, there is no supplemental‑register sequence to note. The latest meaningful event is the abandonment notice on Jan 2 2023, and the supplied history shows no oppositions, cancellations or other enforcement actions. I'd treat this as a modest concern if you plan to use “TOAD” for comparable medical monitoring equipment, but the risk is far lower for unrelated goods or services.
