What this record means
The record shows that the mark “POP‑D‑TOP – IT’S ALL IN THE CAP” is dead, having been abandoned because the applicant failed to respond to an Office action. The owner listed is Emery Lantos, an individual, and the mark was filed on January 20, 2006 on an intent‑to‑use basis. The only goods listed are non‑metal bottle caps, first used in commerce on December 29, 2005. Because the mark covers a specific type of bottle cap, a similar name used for other products would raise a closer concern only if those products are also bottle caps or closely related. The record does not give the mark control over every use of the wording. No enforcement activity—oppositions, cancellations, or court actions—is shown in the supplied history. The last meaningful event was the abandonment notice on March 13, 2008. For someone considering a similar name, the abandoned status means the mark is no longer enforceable, but the specific goods listed still represent a potential area of concern if the new use is in the same category.
