What this record means
The record shows that the mark “MADMAN RATCHIT” is dead because the applicant, Scott J. Emmerich, failed to respond to an Office action. The mark was filed on July 20 2022 and abandoned on August 28 2023. It was offered on the Principal Register for hand tools, specifically a socket for tightening strap winches on flatbed over‑the‑road truck trailers, with first use on July 1 2022. This record does not give the owner control over every use of the wording; it only covers that specific tool. The prosecution history shows a single non‑final action and a protest, but no refusal or amendment to the Supplemental Register, so no supplemental registration sequence is involved. No enforcement activity—such as oppositions or cancellations—appears in the supplied history. For someone looking to use a similar name, the closest concern would be in the niche market of truck‑trailers winch sockets, and the record suggests a meaningful risk if the same or similar goods are offered.
