JUST BECAUSE . . . BURPS HAPPEN
Serial 75631556 · Principal Register
Dead · Cancelled

Owner: Christlieb, Caroline
Class 024 -
Filed Feb 01, 1999
Registered Jun 27, 2000

The record shows the mark JUST BECAUSE . . . BURPS HAPPEN was registered on the Principal Register to Caroline Christlieb as an individual, but it was cancelled on March 31 2007 because the registrant did not file an acceptable Section 8 declaration, so the registration is now dead. The only listed goods are “burping cloths” in International Class 024, so a similar name used for that specific type of product would be the closest area of concern; uses in unrelated categories would fall farther from the scope shown here. The record does not give the owner control over every possible use of the words “just because” or “burps happen.” Because the mark was never placed on the Supplemental Register, there is no supplemental‑register examination sequence to note. The latest meaningful event is the Section 8 cancellation in 2007, and the supplied history shows no oppositions, cancellations by others, or other enforcement activity. I'd treat this as a moderate concern if you plan a similar name for burping‑related cloths, but the risk drops for other goods or services.

Full event history, owner details, and verdict inside.

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.

Your name deserves a straight answer.
