SUN CATCHER

What this record means

The record shows that the mark “SUN CATCHER” is no longer active; it was cancelled on July 7, 2007 because the owner, Lisa Frank, Inc., did not file a required Section 8 declaration. The mark had been registered on October 1, 1996 in the Principal Register for class 028, covering children’s activity kits that include molded‑plastic characters, suction cups, beads, earrings, charms, links, cording, glitter, paints and paintbrushes. A similar name would raise the closest concern in the same category of children’s craft or activity products. The cancellation does not mean the wording is free for all uses; it only removes the specific protection that existed for those goods. The prosecution history shows the mark was initially accepted in Section 8 and later moved to the Principal Register, with no Supplemental Register steps. No enforcement actions such as oppositions or cancellations appear in the supplied history. For someone thinking of a similar name, the record suggests a meaningful risk of conflict in the children’s activity kit market.
