PURPLE PETAL IND.

What this record means

The record shows that “PURPLE PETAL IND.” is a cancelled Principal Register mark owned by John Allegra; the cancellation was entered on September 5 2008 because the registrant failed to file a required Section 8 declaration, so the mark is no longer live. The registration covered only Class 010 goods – hand‑held tools and implements, specifically a non‑electric massager – and the earliest use in commerce was February 20 1999. Because the protection was limited to that narrow category, a similar name used for unrelated products such as clothing, food, or software would create a much farther concern than the listed massager. The prosecution history shows the application moved through standard examination steps, received approval for publication, and ultimately registered on December 4 2001 before being cancelled; there is no indication of oppositions, cancellations by a third party, or other enforcement activity in the supplied history. I'd treat this as a modest concern if you plan a massager or similar handheld device, but the risk drops sharply for other types of goods.
