HAPPY IS THE NEW RICHSerial 86904679 · Principal Register
Dead · Refused
Owner: Resch, George
Class 025 - Clothing
Filed Feb 11, 2016
The record shows that the mark “HAPPY IS THE NEW RICH” is dead, having been abandoned because the owner, George Resch, did not file a Statement of Use or an Extension Request after the Notice of Allowance was issued. The mark was filed on February 11 2016 and was published for opposition on July 5 2016, with a Notice of Allowance issued on August 30 2016. The goods listed are hats and T‑shirts under class 025. Because the mark was never actually registered, it does not grant control over the wording in any broader sense; it only indicates that the owner once sought protection for apparel. The prosecution history shows no opposition, cancellation, or court action, so the supplied history contains no visible enforcement activity. If you are thinking of using a similar name for clothing, the closest concern would be in the same apparel category, but the abandoned status means the owner no longer holds a live claim.

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.
