INVOICE
Dead · Cancelled DEAD/REGISTRATION/Cancelled/InvalidatedWhat this record means
The record shows that the mark “INVOICE” was once registered on the Principal Register but is now dead because the owner, FTC Communications, Inc., failed to file a Section 8 declaration in 1992. The mark covered communications services, specifically the leasing of voice‑grade telecommunications channels. A similar name used in that same telecommunications leasing context would raise the closest record‑based concern. The cancellation does not mean the wording is free for all uses; it only indicates that the specific rights in that class have lapsed. The prosecution history shows the mark was approved, published, and registered in 1985 before being cancelled in 1992. No opposition, cancellation, or court action appears in the supplied history, so there is no visible enforcement signal. For anyone thinking of a similar name in telecommunications leasing, this history suggests a meaningful risk of confusion with the former mark.
