STICK IT IN YOUR EAR
Pending · Under Examination LIVE/APPLICATION/Under Examination
What this record means
The record shows that “STICK IT IN YOUR EAR” is a pending mark on the Principal Register owned by STARKEY HEADSETS, LLC, an Illinois limited liability company. The mark covers audio‑communication equipment such as headphones, earbuds, headsets, loudspeakers, microphones, and related accessories, as well as warranty, cleaning, and maintenance services for those items. A similar name used for products or services in these exact categories would raise the closest concern, while use in unrelated fields would be farther from the scope shown. The record does not grant control over every use of the wording. The prosecution history indicates a non‑final office action was issued on July 1, 2026, and the applicant has responded; no cancellation or abandonment appears. No oppositions or enforcement actions are visible in the supplied history. If you plan to use a comparable name for headsets or related services, the existing pending mark represents a meaningful risk.
