JOHN FORSYTHE

What this record means

The record shows that the mark “JOHN FORSYTHE” is dead and was abandoned because the applicant did not respond to an office action. The owner listed is BURMA‑BIBAS, INC., a corporation organized in New York. The mark was filed on April 8, 1982 and the abandonment was recorded on November 9, 1983. The only goods listed are sports shirts, leather jackets, neckties, and sweaters in class 025, with first use on February 24, 1982. Because the mark was never registered, it does not give the owner control over every use of the wording, but it does show that a similar name in the apparel field—especially sports or casual clothing—would raise the closest record‑based concern. The prosecution history is empty, so no opposition or enforcement activity is visible. The supplied history shows no enforcement signals. If you’re thinking of using a similar name for clothing, this abandoned record suggests a cautious approach.
