CHARACTERS "BUD" AND "TYLER" TWO "TEXANS" AS PORTRAYED BY LIVE ACTORS AND SLOGAN "BUT WHY NEW YORK?"Serial 75725702 · Principal Register
Dead · Refused
Owner: Quiet Word Productions
Class 041 - Education & Entertainment
Filed Oct 30, 1999
The record shows that the mark “CHARACTERS “BUD” AND “TYLER” TWO “TEXANS” AS PORTRAYED BY LIVE ACTORS AND SLOGAN “BUT WHY NEW YORK?” is dead, having been abandoned because the applicant failed to respond or filed a late response to an Office action. The owner listed is Quiet Word Productions. The mark was filed for services in class 041, specifically “Education & Entertainment,” with the goods description “Currently representing New York Burrito.” Because the mark was abandoned, it does not establish control over the wording in any class. The closest area of concern would be any use that involves live character portrayals or entertainment services that could be confused with the abandoned mark’s specific description. The prosecution history shows a non‑final action mailed in March 2000 and an abandonment in November 2000, with no further maintenance or enforcement events recorded. Since the supplied history shows no visible enforcement activity, the record suggests a limited risk for a similar name, but the wording could still raise concerns in closely related entertainment contexts.

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.
