What are goods and services?

Under trademark law, a trademark owner only has protectable rights in connection with the goods and services associated with that trademark. Thus, when someone applies for a federal trademark registration, the trademark application must include a specific identification of the goods and services used in connection with the mark. If the PTO approves the application, the trademark owner will only have rights in connection with the identified goods and services.
