& TO TOP IT OFF
Dead · Refused DEAD/APPLICATION/Refused/Dismissed or InvalidatedWhat this record means
The record shows that the mark “& TO TOP IT OFF” is dead, having been abandoned because the applicant failed to file a compliant Statement of Use. The owner listed is Sondra Renay Duckett, an individual. The mark covered jewelry such as necklaces, anklets, bracelets, and shoe ornaments made of precious metals (class 014) and shoe ornaments not made of precious metals (class 026). A similar name would raise the closest concern in those jewelry and shoe‑ornament categories, especially where the goods are sold under a similar style or branding. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the phrase, only over the specific goods listed. The prosecution history shows a normal sequence of publication, notice of allowance, and a use amendment, but the final abandonment means the mark is no longer enforceable. No enforcement actions appear in the supplied history. For someone looking to use a similar name, the abandoned status reduces the risk, but the specific jewelry and shoe‑ornament classes still present a potential concern if the new use is in those areas.
