Owner: SCARBOROUGH FAIR LIMITED

The record shows that the mark “GROUNDED” is dead, having been abandoned because the applicant failed to respond to an Office action. The owner listed is SCARBOROUGH FAIR LIMITED, a limited liability company organized in New Zealand. The mark was applied for under the Madrid Protocol on December 4, 2017 and was never registered on the Principal Register. The goods and services listed cover a wide range of coffee and tea products, light beverages, and restaurant and hotel services, including coffee shops, cafés, and catering. A similar name would raise the closest concern in those same categories of food and beverage services and products. The record does not give the mark control over every use of the word “grounded.” The prosecution history shows a refusal and a subsequent abandonment, with the last status event being the abandonment notice on August 27, 2019. No enforcement actions appear in the supplied history. For someone considering a similar name, the abandoned status means the mark is not currently enforceable, but the goods and services listed still represent a potential area of concern if the new use is in the same or related fields.

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.
