MASTER CHEFSerial 75033205 · Principal Register
Dead · Refused
Owner: C. & T. Refinery, Inc.
Class 030 - Staple Foods
Filed Dec 15, 1995
The record shows that the mark “MASTER CHEF” is dead, having been abandoned because the owner, C. & T. Refinery, Inc., failed to file a Statement of Use or an Extension Request after the Notice of Allowance was issued. The mark was filed on December 15, 1995 and published for opposition on November 19, 1996, with a Notice of Allowance mailed on February 11, 1997. The only class listed is Class 030, “Staple Foods,” specifically spices. Because the mark is no longer active, it does not give the owner control over the wording in any other context or class. The prosecution history shows a single extension granted and then abandonment, with no subsequent enforcement actions recorded. For someone looking to use a similar name, the closest concern would be in the spices or staple food area; in other goods or services the risk is farther from the specific scope shown.

The way I'd use it, honestly, is as the thing you attach when a bank, a marketplace, or a co-founder asks "are we clear on the name". It answers in one page.
