SEASON'S BEST
Dead · Refused DEAD/APPLICATION/Refused/Dismissed or InvalidatedWhat this record means
The record shows that the mark “SEASON’S BEST” is dead and was abandoned by Shopko Stores, Inc., a corporation organized in Minnesota. The abandoned application covered a range of outdoor and garden goods, including fertilizers, potting soil, garden tools, barbecue accessories, outdoor furniture, and seeds, plants and flowers. Because the mark was never registered, it does not give the owner control over every use of the wording, but the record indicates that a similar name used in any of those specific categories could raise the closest concern. The prosecution history shows a final refusal in December 1992, followed by an abandonment in August 1993 when the applicant failed to respond. No enforcement activity—such as oppositions or cancellations—is visible in the supplied history. For someone considering a similar name, the record suggests a meaningful risk if the name is used for any of the listed goods, especially in the outdoor or garden market.
