CINDERELLA

What this record means

The record shows that the “CINDERELLA” application filed by International Licensing Corporation on Jan 16 1990 is now abandoned, with the last status change recorded on Dec 17 1993 when the USPTO marked it dead because no Statement of Use or extension was filed after the Notice of Allowance; the mark never entered the register as a live registration. The only goods listed are “textiles and textile goods, namely bed linens, bed covers, table covers and napkins” in International Class 024, so a similar name used on those kinds of home‑textile products would raise the closest record‑based concern. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the word “Cinderella” in other markets or product categories. Because the application was on the Principal Register and was abandoned before issuance, there is no Supplemental Register sequence to discuss. The prosecution history shows a series of five‑year extensions for filing a Statement of Use, all of which were eventually missed, and no opposition or cancellation actions appear in the file. I'd treat this as a modest concern if you plan to brand similar textile items, but the risk is limited to that narrow class of goods.
