Filed Feb 02, 1995
The record shows that “DRAGON BALL Z” is a dead application that was abandoned on Oct 22 1998 because the owner never filed a required Statement of Use after the Notice of Allowance, and the mark never entered the register; the owner listed is TOEI ANIMATION CO., LTD. The abandoned filing covered prerecorded video tapes featuring cartoon programs and magnetically coded phone cards (class 009), paper and cardboard goods such as trading cards, posters, coloring books, stickers and stationery (class 016), lunch boxes and pails (class 021), clothing including shoes, headwear, shirts, T‑shirts, jackets, pants and sweatsuits (class 025), and television broadcasting of cartoon programs (class 038). A similar name used for any of those specific goods or services would create the closest record‑based concern, while uses outside those categories are farther from the listed scope but not automatically free of risk. The prosecution history shows the application proceeded to a Notice of Allowance on Apr 21 1998, then failed to submit a use statement and was abandoned, but it never moved to the Supplemental Register. The latest meaningful event in the file is the abandonment entry on Oct 22 1998, and no opposition, cancellation or court activity appears in the supplied history. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan to use “Dragon Ball Z” for similar entertainment‑related products or broadcasting.

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.
