PEONY

What this record means

The record shows that the mark “PEONY” is dead and was abandoned by Sun Hing Foods, Inc., a California corporation, because no Statement of Use or Extension Request was filed after the Notice of Allowance. The mark was registered on the Principal Register for class 030, covering biscuits. A similar name would raise the closest concern for use in the biscuit or staple food category, as that is the only goods listed. The record does not give the mark control over all uses of the word “PEONY.” The prosecution history shows a standard sequence: publication for opposition, a Notice of Allowance, and a required Statement of Use that was never filed, leading to abandonment. No enforcement actions, oppositions, or cancellations appear in the supplied history. For someone looking to use a similar name, the abandoned status suggests a lower risk, but the specific biscuit category remains a potential point of concern.
