The search SN:/<98967800-98975000>/ retrieves 2 trademarks, namely the new application 98967800, filed 16 Jan, and the first divisional serial number 98975000 of the 98-series. The 7,199 serial numbers 98967801 through 98974999 remain unused for now (though
I expect additional new filings for 16 Jan and 17 Jan will appear for that serial number range in the next few days).</div>

Additionally, the search term <b>applic </b>occurs somewhere in that SA - Status text string, though other status entries also include the
<b>applic </b>word fragment. I'm thinking there are enough typos / word fragments in the SA - Status field that the USPTO is too embarrassed to display the content of that field. </div>
