CAN YOU SAY ROSS SWISS WITHOUT A SMILE?
Dead · Cancelled DEAD/REGISTRATION/Cancelled/Invalidated
What this record means
The record shows that the mark “CAN YOU SAY ROSS SWISS WITHOUT A SMILE?” was registered on the Principal Register on July 26, 2005, but was cancelled on September 28, 2012 because the registrant, DEAN FOODS COMPANY, failed to file a Section 8 declaration. The cancelled registration covered goods in classes 029, 030 and 032, including dairy products, ice cream, and fruit juices. A similar name would raise the closest concern in those same food categories, especially dairy and ice‑cream products. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the wording; it only shows rights within the listed classes. The prosecution history shows the mark was initially approved for publication, amended, and eventually registered before cancellation. No oppositions, extensions, or court actions appear, so the supplied history shows no enforcement activity. If you plan to use a similar name in dairy or ice‑cream goods, this cancelled registration still signals a potential risk in those specific food areas.
