What this record means
The record shows that the mark “VINI’S PIZZA” is dead, having been abandoned after an incomplete response to a final refusal. The owner listed is Diaz, Rosendo, an individual who filed the application on March 28, 2008. The mark was registered on the Principal Register for class 030, covering fresh pizza. A similar name would raise the closest concern in the same class, where the goods are fresh pizza, because that is the only scope shown. The record does not give the mark control over other uses of the wording in unrelated goods or services. The prosecution history shows a refusal, an amendment, and a final refusal before abandonment, but no supplemental registration. The latest event is the abandonment notice on March 27, 2009. No oppositions, cancellations, or court actions appear in the supplied history. For someone considering a similar name, the abandoned status means the mark no longer protects that wording in fresh pizza, but the historical refusal suggests that the owner may have had concerns about descriptiveness or likelihood of confusion, so caution is still advised.
