PRESSED PETALS

What this record means

The record shows that “PRESSED PETALS” is a cancelled Supplemental Register registration owned by PRESSED PETALS, INC., a Utah corporation; the cancellation occurred on June 29 2001 because the owner failed to file a required Section 8 declaration. The registration covered only class 016 – “Paper Goods & Printed Matter” – specifically bookmarks, so a later use of the same wording on similar paper or printed items would be the closest area of concern. The record does not give the owner control over every possible use of the words “pressed petals” in unrelated categories. The prosecution history reveals that the application was initially refused, then amended and approved for the Supplemental Register on April 11 1994 and formally registered on June 21 1994, reflecting a typical path for marks deemed descriptive. The latest meaningful event is the Section 8 cancellation in 2001, and no further dates are listed. The supplied history shows no oppositions, cancellations by third parties, or court actions, so there are no visible enforcement signals. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan a similar name for bookmarks or other paper goods.
