ROBERT

What this record means

The record shows that the mark ROBERT was registered on the Principal Register to Music Studios of West Manor, Inc., a New York corporation, but it was cancelled on Oct 12 2012 because the registrant failed to file an acceptable Section 8 declaration, so the registration is now dead. The only listed goods are “musical instruments namely, recorders” in International Class 015, meaning a similar name would raise the closest record‑based concern if you’re offering or selling recorders or related musical instruments. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the word ROBERT in other product categories or services. The prosecution history shows a normal path to registration and then the Section 8 cancellation; no oppositions, cancellations beyond this, or court actions appear in the file. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan to use ROBERT for recorder‑type instruments, but the risk is far lower for unrelated goods.
