JUST BECAUSE...GIFT BOXES & BASKETSSerial 77411302 · Principal Register
Dead · Refused
Owner: Crosby, Joelle Lynn
Class 045 - Legal & Personal Services
Filed Mar 03, 2008
The record shows the application for “JUST BECAUSE…GIFT BOXES & BASKETS” is abandoned, so it is not a live or registered mark; the owner listed is Joelle Lynn Crosby, an individual, and the filing was based on an intent‑to‑use basis. The only goods covered are “preparation of customized gift baskets; preparation of customized gift baskets with selected items regarding a particular occasion or theme” in International Class 045, which means a similar name would be most concerning if used for any gift‑basket or related personal‑service business. The record does not give the owner control over every possible use of the words “just because” or “gift boxes and baskets” outside that specific service description. The prosecution history ends with an abandonment notice mailed on August 21 2009 after the applicant failed to respond to a final refusal, and no later maintenance or renewal actions appear. The supplied history shows no oppositions, cancellations or court actions, so there is no visible enforcement signal. I'd treat this as a modest concern if you plan to market custom gift baskets under a similar name, because the abandoned filing still signals that the USPTO once linked the wording to that niche service.
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.
