What this record means
The record shows that the mark “VIVIENNE MACKINDER” is dead, having been abandoned because the owner, Vivienne Mackinder, did not file a Statement of Use or an Extension Request after the Notice of Allowance was issued. The mark was filed on March 3, 1995 and was allowed on May 21, 1996, but the abandonment was recorded on May 22, 1997. The only goods listed are hair extensions and hair pieces in class 26. Because the mark is no longer active, it does not give the owner control over the wording in any other context, but the record indicates that a similar name could raise the closest concern for products or services related to hair extensions or hair pieces. No enforcement actions, oppositions, or cancellations appear in the supplied history. The latest meaningful event is the abandonment in May 1997. For someone considering a similar name, the record suggests a moderate risk if the new use involves hair extensions or related products, but the mark’s dead status means the owner is not currently protecting the name.
