LA ESMERALDA

What this record means

The record shows that “LA ESMERALDA” is a cancelled Principal Register mark (registration number 2070256) that was owned by LA ESMERALDA, S.A. de C.V., a corporation organized in El Salvador, and that the cancellation was entered on March 13 2004 because the registrant failed to file a required Section 8 declaration. The only listed goods are coffee, filed in International Class 030, so a similar name used for coffee or other staple‑food products would raise the closest record‑based concern, while uses in unrelated categories would be farther from the scope shown here. The record does not give the owner control over every possible use of the words “LA ESMERALDA.” No Supplemental Register filing appears, and the prosecution history simply tracks the normal allowance, registration and later cancellation steps. The latest meaningful event is the Section 8 cancellation in 2004, and the supplied history shows no oppositions, cancellations by others, or other enforcement activity. I'd treat this as a moderate concern if you plan to market coffee under a similar name.
