SUN CHARM

What this record means

The record shows that SUN CHARM, filed by Vicmar Trading Co. Ltd. (a Canadian corporation) on May 9 1994, is now abandoned; the USPTO marked it dead on September 27 1998 after the applicant failed to respond to an Office action. The only listed goods are ornamental display figurines made of gold‑plated metal and crystal that depict a wide range of animals, insects, birds, mythical creatures and holiday themes. Because the protection was limited to those decorative items, a similar name used for unrelated products—say clothing, food or software—would not fall within the narrow scope the record covers, though the same wording could still raise a concern for those specific figurines. The prosecution history shows a series of suspension letters and examiner assignments before the final abandonment, but no indication of a Supplemental Register filing. The latest meaningful event is the abandonment notice on September 27 1998, and the supplied history contains no record of oppositions, cancellations or other enforcement actions. I'd treat this as a modest concern if you plan to market decorative crystal figurines under a similar name.
