What this record means
The record shows that the mark “BRIM’S OLD SOUTH” is no longer live; it was cancelled on June 12 2004 because the owner, Joy’s Memphis Sales Co., Inc., failed to file a Section 8 declaration. The mark had been registered on the Principal Register on September 9 1997 for the specific goods of fried pork rinds and pork cracklins, a class 029 food product. Because the cancellation was due to a maintenance failure, the owner no longer holds enforceable rights, but the historical registration still indicates that the wording was once protected for that particular food item. The record contains no evidence of opposition, cancellation after publication, or other enforcement activity, so the supplied history shows none. If you are thinking of using a similar name for a different food product or in a different class, the closest concern would be the original fried pork rinds and pork cracklins, but the cancellation means the mark is not currently enforceable.
