HIRAM & MOONDOG'S COSMIC COFFEE

What this record means

The record shows that the mark HIRAM & MOONDOG'S COSMIC COFFEE was abandoned on Nov 17, 2000 after the applicant, John S. Calligan, failed to respond to an Office action, so it is not a live or registered mark. The only listed goods are “gourmet specialty coffee retail” in International Class 035, meaning the closest area of concern would be any other business that sells or promotes specialty coffee under a similar name. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the words “Hiram,” “Moondog,” or “Cosmic Coffee” in unrelated fields. The prosecution history shows an examiner was assigned in December 1999, a non‑final action was mailed in January 2000, correspondence was received in July 2000, and the application was abandoned in November 2000; there are no later maintenance filings or renewal dates. The supplied history contains no oppositions, cancellations or court actions, so no enforcement activity is visible. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan to use a similar name for coffee retail, because the abandoned filing still signals that the USPTO once linked those words to that specific product line.
