I DIDN'T RE-INVENT THE WHEEL, I JUST PUT RIMS ON IT.
Serial 85216522 · Principal Register
Dead · Cancelled

Owner: Douglas, Steve
Class 041 - Education & Entertainment
Filed Jan 13, 2011
Registered Feb 28, 2012

This mark is no longer live; the record shows it was cancelled on October 5, 2018 because the owner, Steve Douglas, did not file a Section 8 declaration. The mark was once registered on the Principal Register on February 28, 2012 for education services, specifically conducting online math classes through a math club. A similar name would raise the closest concern in the education and entertainment field, especially for online math instruction. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the wording; it only covers the specific services listed. The prosecution history shows the mark was examined, published for opposition, and ultimately registered before cancellation. No enforcement actions, oppositions, or cancellations beyond the Section 8 cancellation are recorded. For someone considering a similar name, the cancelled status reduces the risk, but the original registration still signals that the owner once claimed rights in that specific educational niche.

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.

Your name deserves a straight answer.
