PAPEL

What this record means

The record shows a live Principal Register registration (Reg. No. 3161866) owned by the individual Evan T. Papel, filed on April 28 2005 and registered on October 24 2006; the most recent meaningful event is the February 16 2016 acceptance of the first ten‑year renewal under Sections 8 and 9. The protection is limited to the goods listed in International Class 025 – apparel such as t‑shirts, footwear, hats, caps, aprons, baby bibs (not of paper), baby socks, undergarments, ties, headbands and socks – and the record does not extend to other product categories or services, so a similar name used on unrelated items would not fall within this specific scope. Because the mark sits on the Principal Register, there is no supplemental‑register sequence to note. The prosecution history contains no oppositions, cancellations or court actions, indicating no visible enforcement activity in the file. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan to use “PAPEL” for clothing or closely related apparel, but the record alone doesn’t block uses outside that narrow category.
