GROUNDEDSerial 85847610 · Principal Register
Dead · Cancelled
Owner: Zeal Optics, Inc.
Class 035 - Advertising & Business
Filed Feb 12, 2013
Registered Oct 15, 2013
The record shows that the mark “GROUNDED” is no longer active; it was cancelled on June 5 2020 because the owner, Zeal Optics, Inc., failed to file a Section 8 declaration. The mark was once registered on the Principal Register for class 035, covering advertising and business services that promote environmental awareness. A similar name used in that same advertising or environmental‑awareness context would raise the closest concern. The cancellation does not mean the wording is free for all uses; it only indicates that the specific registration is no longer enforceable. The prosecution history shows the mark was initially approved for publication, published for opposition, and then registered; no supplemental‑register steps were involved. No enforcement actions, oppositions, or cancellations beyond the Section 8 event appear in the supplied history. For someone considering a similar name, the cancelled status reduces the risk, but the prior registration in class 035 still signals that use in advertising or environmental‑awareness services could be viewed as a potential concern.

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.
