What this record means
The record shows that the mark “G&T” was abandoned and is no longer active. The owner listed is Xiao, Hong, an individual who filed the application on March 18, 2003 under an intent‑to‑use basis. The only goods listed are auto shock absorbers in class 012, so the closest concern would arise if you were marketing or selling shock absorbers or related automotive parts under a similar name. The abandonment happened because the applicant failed to respond to an office action, and the last status event was the abandonment notice on January 24, 2005. No enforcement activity—such as oppositions or cancellations—is recorded. Because the mark is dead, it does not give the owner control over the wording in any other context, but the history suggests that using “G&T” for automotive shock absorbers could still raise a concern. For a similar name in a different field, the risk is farther from the specific scope shown by this record.
