RODZILLA

What this record means

The record shows that the mark RODZILLA was abandoned on September 2 1999 after the applicant, Curtiss Middlebrooks, failed to answer an Office action, so the application is no longer live or registered. The only goods listed are “Scarves, Neckwear, Bandanas, Head Wear, Head Bands” in International Class 025, meaning the closest area of concern would be any clothing or accessories that fall within that same class. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the word “RODZILLA” outside those specific items, and it does not appear on the Supplemental Register. The latest meaningful event is the abandonment entry on September 2 1999, and no further maintenance or renewal dates are provided. The prosecution history shows a non‑final action mailed on December 30 1998, assignment to an examiner on December 16 1998, and then the abandonment, with no oppositions or cancellations noted. I'd treat this as a modest concern if you plan to use a similar name for clothing or related accessories.
