VIVENDI UNIVERSALSerial 76174791 · Principal Register
Dead · Refused
Owner: Vivendi
Class 025 - Clothing
Filed Nov 29, 2000
The record shows that “VIVENDI UNIVERSAL” is an abandoned application – the USPTO marked it dead on July 6 2004 after the applicant failed to respond to an Office action, and the owner listed is Vivendi, a company organized in France. The filing covered only Class 025 clothing, specifically jackets, shirts, tee shirts, trousers, dresses, skirts, tops, ties, jerseys, shoes (excluding orthopedic shoes) and hats, so a similar name used for apparel would be the closest area of concern; uses in unrelated categories would be farther from the scope shown here. The record does not give Vivendi control over every possible use of the words “Vivendi” or “Universal.” Because the mark was never placed on the Supplemental Register, there is no supplemental‑register sequence to note. The latest meaningful event is the abandonment notice in July 2004, and the supplied history shows no oppositions, cancellations or other enforcement activity. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan a clothing brand with a similar name.
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.
