LILY PAD

What this record means

The record shows that “LILY PAD” was registered on the Principal Register to STAR IMPORTS, INC., a Washington corporation, but the registration was cancelled on March 13, 2004 because the owner failed to file a required Section 8 declaration, so the mark is now dead. The protection that existed covered only “stuffed toy ornamental figures” in International Class 028, with the first use dated September 1, 1994 and a use‑in‑commerce date of March 23, 1995; a similar name used for toys or related decorative items would be the closest area of concern, while uses in unrelated categories fall farther from the scope shown. The record does not give the owner any control over every possible use of the words “LILY PAD.” The prosecution history shows the mark moved through normal examination, was approved for publication, and ultimately registered before the later cancellation; there are no opposition or cancellation proceedings noted, so the supplied history shows no visible enforcement activity. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan a toy‑related brand with a similar name, because the cancelled registration still signals prior claim to that niche.
