PAPER PETALS

What this record means

The record shows that the application for “PAPER PETALS” is dead – it was abandoned after an appeal of the examining attorney’s final refusal, with the last status change recorded on Nov 30 2007, and the owner listed as Paper Petals, LLC, a Missouri limited‑liability company. The filing covered only paper‑related goods in International Class 016, specifically items such as greeting cards, stationery, envelopes, gift tags, wrapping paper, gift boxes, diaries, writing instruments, calendars, posters, scrapbooks and photograph albums. A similar name used for any of those paper‑goods would raise the closest record‑based concern, while uses outside that narrow scope fall farther from the listed coverage. The record does not give the owner control over every possible use of the words “paper” or “petals.” No prosecution history or enforcement actions appear in the file, and there are no future dates noted. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan to market comparable paper products under a similar name.
