LOVE FLOWERS

What this record means

The record shows that “LOVE FLOWERS” is a dead application that was abandoned on June 16 2007 because the owner never filed a Statement of Use after the Notice of Allowance, and the owner listed is Flat Creek Mountain, Inc., a corporation organized in North Carolina. The filing covered only goods in International Class 027 – a long list of floor‑covering items such as bath mats, carpet tiles, rubber mats, vinyl floor coverings and similar products – so a later user of “Love Flowers” for those kinds of floor or wall coverings would run into the closest record‑based concern. The record does not give Flat Creek Mountain any control over every possible use of the words “love” or “flowers,” especially in unrelated industries. This was a Principal Register filing, not a Supplemental Register entry, and the prosecution history simply shows the usual extensions for a Statement of Use that were never satisfied before the abandonment. The latest meaningful event is the abandonment notice mailed in December 2007, and the supplied history contains no oppositions, cancellations or court actions. I'd treat this as a moderate concern if you plan to market floor‑covering products under a similar name, but the risk is far lower for unrelated goods.
