JUST BECAUSESerial 76404070 · Principal Register
Dead · Cancelled
Owner: CELESTE CONTRACT PACKAGING, LLC
Class 020 -
Filed May 06, 2002
Registered Sep 28, 2004
The record shows that “JUST BECAUSE” is a cancelled Principal Register mark owned by CELESTE CONTRACT PACKAGING, LLC; the registration was cancelled on April 29 2011 because the owner failed to file a required Section 8 declaration. The only goods listed are “travel kits comprised primarily of pillows, pillow cases, and blankets, sold as a unit” in International Class 020, so a later use of the same wording on similar travel‑related textile kits would raise the closest record‑based concern. The record does not give the owner control over every possible use of the words “just because,” especially in unrelated product categories. The prosecution history shows the mark moved through normal examination, received a Notice of Allowance, was allowed on the Principal Register, and later fell into cancellation for non‑maintenance. No oppositions, cancellations beyond the Section 8 event, or court actions appear, so the supplied history shows no visible enforcement activity. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan a comparable travel‑kit product, but the risk is far lower for dissimilar goods.
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.
