Class 028 -
Class 035 - Advertising & Business
Filed Jul 09, 2010
The record shows that the mark “THE STARRY WAY” is dead and was abandoned because the international registration was restricted, renounced, or expired. The owner listed is MADANI HATIM, an individual. The goods covered were board and card games and educational parlor games on astronomy, and business services related to parlor game distribution. A similar name would raise the closest concern in the area of astronomy‑themed games or related business services. This record does not give the owner control over every use of the wording; it only covers the specific goods and services listed. The prosecution history shows a refusal in 2011 followed by an abandonment notice in 2012, with no subsequent revival. The latest meaningful event was the cancellation of the international registration on July 9, 2020. No oppositions, cancellations, or court actions appear in the supplied history. For someone considering a similar name, the record suggests a meaningful risk of conflict in astronomy‑related games and related business services.

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.
