What this record means

The record shows that the mark “DOTS‑RIGHT” is no longer active; it was cancelled on November 4, 1992 because the registrant, R.T. Shanahan, Inc., did not file a required declaration. The mark had been registered on the Principal Register on January 7, 1986 for the single class 026 good “necktie tying aid.” A similar name used for necktie‑related products or accessories would raise the closest concern, while uses in unrelated categories would be farther from the scope shown. The cancellation does not mean the wording is free for all uses; it only removes the specific protection for that necktie aid. No enforcement actions, oppositions, or cancellations beyond the Section 8 cancellation appear in the supplied history. The latest meaningful event is the cancellation itself. For someone considering a similar name, the record suggests a meaningful risk if the new use is in the necktie‑accessory space.
