FIRSTSHOT

What this record means

The record shows that the application for FIRSTSHOT was abandoned, so the mark is not live or registered; it was filed by E. I. du Pont de Nemours and Company, a Delaware corporation, and the abandonment notice was mailed on September 23 2008 after no Statement of Use was filed following the Notice of Allowance. The only goods listed are “herbicide for use on cotton” in International Class 5, so a similar name used for agricultural chemicals, especially cotton herbicides, would be the closest area of concern. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the word “firstshot” in other industries or for unrelated products. Because the application never moved beyond the principal‑register examination and was never entered on the Supplemental Register, there is no supplemental‑register sequence to note. The latest meaningful event is the abandonment entry on September 23 2008, and the supplied history shows no oppositions, cancellations or other enforcement actions. I'd treat this as a moderate concern if you plan a cotton‑herbicide brand, but the risk drops sharply for unrelated goods.
