TOPPERS

What this record means

The record shows that the mark TOPPERS is dead and was abandoned after a decision by the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board. The owner listed is North American Baking, Inc., a corporation organized in Ohio, and the mark was filed on September 29, 1997 on an intent‑to‑use basis. The only goods listed are crackers and cookies in class 030, so the closest area of concern would be other companies making or selling similar staple foods. The record does not give the mark control over every use of the word “TOPPERS.” No supplemental register status appears, and the prosecution history is empty, so there is no indication of a descriptive refusal or amendment. The last meaningful event was the abandonment on July 09, 1999. No oppositions, cancellations, or court actions are recorded, so the supplied history shows no visible enforcement activity. If you are thinking of using a similar name for crackers or cookies, this history suggests a meaningful risk of conflict.
