SOULSerial 88485880 · Principal Register
Dead · Refused
Owner: LYNCH, ROBERT W.
Class 035 - Advertising & Business
Filed Jun 24, 2019
The record shows that the mark “SOUL” is dead, having been abandoned because the owner, Robert Lynch, failed to respond to an Office action. The mark was filed as a service mark on June 24 2019 and was published for opposition on October 22 2019. It was granted a Notice of Allowance on December 17 2019 and the owner first used it in commerce on May 31 2021 for association services that promote the interests of satirists, a service class 035. The abandonment notice was mailed and emailed on February 12 2022, and the final status is “dead.” No enforcement activity such as oppositions or cancellations appears in the supplied history. Because the mark was only ever on the Principal Register and has been abandoned, it does not control the use of the word “SOUL” in other contexts, but a similar name used for satirist‑promotion services would raise the closest record‑based concern. The practical risk for someone considering a similar name is that while the mark is no longer active, the specific service area remains a potential point of comparison.

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.
