What this record means
The record shows that the mark “WHITE GIRLS WITH SOUL” is dead and was abandoned because the owner, Conant B. Rose Sr., did not file a Statement of Use or an Extension Request after the Notice of Allowance was issued. The mark was filed as a service mark on January 7, 1992, and was published for opposition on June 30, 1992, before receiving a Notice of Allowance on September 22, 1992. The only goods listed are “entertainment in the nature of a rap, dance duo” under class 041. Because the mark is no longer active, it does not give the owner control over the wording in other contexts, but the specific description of rap or dance entertainment is the closest area of concern. The prosecution history shows a straightforward allowance and subsequent abandonment, with no opposition or enforcement actions recorded. For someone looking to use a similar name, the main risk would be in the rap or dance entertainment field, where this abandoned mark could still be cited as a prior use.
