PUT IT TO PAPER

What this record means

The record shows that the mark “PUT IT TO PAPER” is dead, having been abandoned because the applicant failed to respond to an Office action. The owner listed is Nathaniel R. Bowman, an individual, and the mark was filed on April 1, 2008 under an intent‑to‑use basis. The goods covered are greeting cards, holiday cards, invitation cards, Christmas cards, greetings cards and postcards, note cards, and postcards, all within class 016. A similar name would raise the closest concern for use in those paper‑goods categories, but the record does not give the mark control over any other uses. The prosecution history shows a non‑final action in July 2008 followed by abandonment in February 2009; no supplemental register status is involved. No enforcement activity such as opposition or cancellation appears in the supplied history. For someone looking to use a similar name, the abandoned status means the mark is no longer enforceable, yet the specific card‑related goods still present a potential point of concern.
