What this record means
The record shows that the mark “FORSYTHE” was registered on the Principal Register on September 24, 2002, but was cancelled on May 16, 2009 because the registrant, Forsythe Racing, Inc., did not file a Section 8 declaration. The cancelled registration covered clothing such as shirts, sweatshirts, jackets, sweaters, belts, sport shoes, hats, and caps, all under class 025. A similar name would raise the closest concern in the apparel and footwear space, especially for sports‑related garments and accessories. This history does not give the owner control over every use of the word “FORSYTHE” in other industries. The prosecution history shows a straightforward examination and publication, with no Supplemental Register involvement. No enforcement actions, oppositions, or cancellations beyond the Section 8 cancellation appear in the supplied data. For someone looking to use a similar name, the cancelled status suggests a lower risk of infringement in the apparel sector, but the mark’s prior registration still signals that the owner once claimed rights in that specific category.
