SUNDOWN

What this record means

The record shows that the mark SUNDOWN was registered to BREUER, WINFRIED as a Principal Register service mark but was cancelled on March 13, 1995 because the registrant failed to file an acceptable Section 8 declaration, so the registration is now dead. The only listed service is “RETAIL STORE SERVICES IN THE FIELDS OF SKIING, SURFING AND SAILING” in International Class 042, meaning a similar name would raise the closest concern for businesses offering retail‑store experiences tied to those sports. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the word “SUNDOWN” in unrelated fields. The prosecution history shows the mark moved through normal examination, was approved for publication, and ultimately registered before the later cancellation; it never appeared on the Supplemental Register. The latest meaningful event is the Section 8 cancellation in 1995, and no oppositions or other enforcement actions appear in the file. I'd treat this as a moderate concern if you plan a retail service around skiing, surfing or sailing, but the risk drops sharply for unrelated goods or services.
