TAKING THE EARTH BACK

What this record means

The record shows that the mark TAKING THE EARTH BACK is dead – it was abandoned on March 9 2009 because the applicant never filed a required Statement of Use after the Notice of Allowance, and the owner listed is American Green Holdings, Inc., a Missouri corporation. The only goods and services covered are in International Class 035: promoting the goods and services of others, specifically bio‑fuel‑powered or low‑impact motorcycles through media public‑service announcements, and online retail store services offering decals and shirts that promote environmental preservation. A similar name would raise the closest record‑based concern if used for advertising, promotional, or apparel services that echo those descriptions; it does not automatically affect unrelated categories. The prosecution history shows the application moved from filing in July 2007 to allowance in August 2008, then to abandonment in March 2009, with no later maintenance filings. The supplied history contains no oppositions, cancellations or court actions, so no enforcement signal appears. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern for any business planning to market eco‑focused promotional apparel or motorcycle‑related services under a comparable phrase.
