What this record means
The record shows that the mark “FUN CENTRAL” is dead and was abandoned by BETTA PRODUCTS, INC., a California corporation, because no Statement of Use or Extension Request was filed after the Notice of Allowance. The mark was registered on the Principal Register for class 028, covering children’s toys such as hand buzzers, walkie‑talkies, pool table sets, yoyos, jump ropes, and other play items. A similar name would raise the closest concern for use in the toy market, especially where the goods are comparable to those listed. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the words “fun” or “central” in other contexts. The prosecution history shows a series of extensions granted after the Notice of Allowance, but the abandonment event on February 7, 2003, is the latest status change. No opposition, cancellation, or court action appears in the supplied history. For someone considering a similar name, the abandoned status means the mark is no longer enforceable, but the specific toy goods listed still represent a focused area of concern.
