SUN CATCHER

What this record means

The record shows that the mark “SUN CATCHER” was registered on the Principal Register on March 20, 2007 but was cancelled under Section 8 on October 25, 2013 because the registrant, J. Baxter Brinkmann International Corporation, did not file an acceptable declaration of continued use. The mark covered outdoor solar‑powered lighting units and fixtures, and the cancellation means the owner no longer holds enforceable rights in that specific category. Because the cancellation was not due to abandonment or opposition, the record does not indicate that the owner has abandoned all claims to the name, only that the Principal Register registration is no longer active. No enforcement actions, oppositions, or cancellations beyond the Section 8 event appear in the supplied history. A similar name used for outdoor solar lighting could raise the closest concern, while use in unrelated goods would be farther from the scope shown. The practical risk for someone considering a similar name is that the cancelled registration still signals that the owner once claimed rights, so caution is advised when entering the same or similar market.
