PASO DE LUNA

What this record means

The record shows that “PASO DE LUNA” is an abandoned application – the USPTO marked it dead after no Statement of Use or extension was filed following the Notice of Allowance, with the abandonment notice mailed on September 13 2010; the owner listed is C.I. Paso de Luna Ltda, a corporation organized in Colombia. The filing covered Class 031 (flowers, fresh floral arrangements, flowering plants, seeds, bulbs, live and dried plants, and related horticultural cuttings and tissue) and Class 035 (retail store services and wholesale distributorships offering those same floral products). A similar name would raise the closest concern if used for any of those horticultural goods or related retail services, because the record’s protection is limited to that specific scope and does not extend to unrelated categories. The prosecution history shows the application proceeded through examination, received a Notice of Allowance, and then failed to submit the required use statement, leading to abandonment; it was never placed on the Supplemental Register. No oppositions, cancellations, or court actions appear in the supplied history, so there are no visible enforcement signals. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern for anyone planning to use “Paso de Luna” in the flower or related retail market, but it does not block uses outside those areas.
