STICK IT

What this record means

The record shows that the mark “STICK IT” is dead and was abandoned after an inter‑parts decision by the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board. The owner listed is ActiveGroup Inc., a corporation organized in Canada. The mark was filed on January 21, 2010 on an intent‑to‑use basis and was published for opposition on June 8, 2010, with the final status change noted on September 28, 2010. The goods covered are adhesive materials for office use, adhesive note pads, adhesive tapes for stationery or household purposes, adhesive‑applying machines for home and office use, and related items, all within class 016. Because the mark is no longer active, it does not give the owner control over every use of the wording, but it does create a close concern for any new mark that uses “STICK IT” in the same or similar adhesive‑related goods. The supplied history shows no enforcement activity. If you are thinking of a similar name for adhesive products, this abandoned record suggests a potential risk of confusion with the former owner’s claim.
