DUN'S FILESWEEP

What this record means

The record shows that the mark “DUN’S FILESWEEP” was registered on the Principal Register on July 30, 1991, but the registration was cancelled on July 20, 2002 because the registrant, Dun & Bradstreet Corporation, The, failed to file a Section 8 declaration. The mark covered marketing information services under class 035. A similar name used for marketing or business‑information services would raise the closest concern, while use in unrelated fields would be farther from the scope shown. The cancellation means the mark no longer controls that wording on the Principal Register, but it does not eliminate all potential rights that could exist elsewhere. The prosecution history shows a straightforward registration with no Supplemental Register steps. No enforcement actions, oppositions, or cancellations beyond the Section 8 event appear in the supplied history. For someone considering a similar name, the cancelled status suggests a lower risk, yet the past registration in class 035 still signals that the wording was once protected for marketing services.
